The behavious of Calendar in 2002, is much better than in 2003, whereby
calendar would open in the right pane, not part of the folder hierarchy.
When you have a long folder hierarchy, and you click on calendar in 2003, it
squashes the folder list; getting back to a particular folder is not straight
forward.
In 2002, the behaviour was best for navigation and viewing: click on
calendar, the folder tree remains in place, you get up to 4 month worth in
the right pane, without messing the folder tree. click again on the tree,
calendar pane disappears; now in 2003, it's a mess (when you have long folder
tree).

Equally, the behaviour of http mail in outlook 2002, was much better, when
you work offline. In 2003, you can no longer manage it offline, as in 2002..

So, do you actually think that Microsoft will retrograde Outlook because of
this suggestion? I seriously doubt it.

Is it helpful to put down people's suggestiosn after they have taken the time
to communicate their concerns? The comments made by Jad A. are valid and
Microsoft *should* consider them.

Why do you think MS encourages feedback and hosts this Q&A on their site?
So they can monitor the issues.

I agree with Jad A. and find the functionality of Outlook *degrading* with
each new release.

1. Use the folder list if you don't like the navigation pane
2. if by '4 month' you mean the small navigation calendars, you can show
them on the left or right side and show as many or as few as you want.
3. http is going the way of the dinosaur.
4. outlook 2003 will not be reprogrammed - it's outlook 2007 for the next
couple of years.
