Default How can I assign each of my family members a color in my calendar?

I use my calendar for both business and family events. How can I color my
business entries one color and assign a color to each family member so that I
can see at a glance who the appointment/meeting/event is tied to.

Have a look on this site:

That article was very helpful. Does Outlook 2007 have any additional
features for coloring/labeling?

Thanks

Outlook 2007 uses color categories - so it has more colors and you can
assign categories to colors - you aren't limited like you are with labels.

I'm going to update the article on slipstick in the morning - but there
really isn't much you need to know - create categories and apply them to the
items. if you put more than one category on an item, it displays using the
color of the last category.
