Default Colour Categories

In Outlook 2003 I could set up rules for automatic assigning colour
categories depending on key words in the Calendar bookings title. These
rules have been inherited by my Outlook 2007, but how do I change them or
assign new automatic rules for colour categories?

Default Colour Categories

Are you using Rules Wizard on incoming meeting requests or automatic
formatting rules in a custom view?

Categories and colors work differently in Outlook 2007 (in Outlook 2003,
colors were Labels, not color categories). In Outlook 2007, if you assign a
color category, automatic formatting rules won't change the color - the
category wins.
