Calendar multiple day events - skipping weekends.
 
Outlook 2003
For project planning, In addition to using tasklist & weekly calendar for
details task planning, I like to schedule multi-day blocks of time using
calendar events to identify top priority projects for that time period. I
then move the detail tasks to the calendar as appropriate.

I can then use the event blocks and month calendar view for longer term
project planning and scheduling.

The problem is events don't skip weekends, so if I setup a 5 day project
starting on a Wednesday outlook shows the project window ending on Sunday
even though it will really end on Tuesday. How can I setup events with fixed
durations to skip weekends?

Thanks
