Outlook 2007 Multi-Calendar Categorizing
In Outlook Calendars 2007, I have created numerous calendars for a variety of purposes. But I seem to be stuck with the same color/meaning Categorization list no matter which calendar I am adding an event to. Does anyone know how to set up DIFFERENT color code Categorizations on different calendars? Thanks.
