Change font color by category
I'm a novice to Outlook / Outlook programming. But, what I need to do is
make the font of the individual appointments ("events") be different colors, based on what category I've assigned. (I've defined about 8 categories). What I'm trying to accomplish is get a monthly calendar that (on view/print) has distinctive colors per category (of the 8 categories -- not all provided categories). Can I manage this? Thanks so much, in advance! |
Change font color by category
The font color for a day/week/month view can't be changed. You can, however, change the background color to one of the color labels by setting up automatic formatting on the view to apply a label per category.
In other words, this isn't a programming issue, at least not based on what you've told us so far. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "zSplash" wrote in message ...

Defining the background color label per category works nicely. Thanks so
