can anyone out there tell me how to make outlook accept that there are 7 working days in the week, and that not all of us have a no work sat or sun.

I would love the print out of my monthly schedule to show 7 days not 5 ((2 halfs).

Thanks in advance.....

Looks like you can tell Outlook that Sat & Sun are indeed workdays (Tools/Options/Calendar Options), it does change the workweek display ...
... but Sat & Sun are still half-days in the weekly or monthly printouts (even if you untick Mon & Tue)
Even tried a two-day workweek, starting on Sat, same stuff.

Yet another example of nice Microsh!t ergonomy
:rolleyes:

It is actually possible to do it in Outlook, but it is well hidden : see here (http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/thread-2037816.php)

Google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Outlook+workweek+saturday+sunday+printout&btnG=Google+Search) keywords to get there : Outlook workweek saturday sunday printout

Once I knew what it was, I was even able to find it in the online help :rolleyes:

Edited to add it only works for monthly printouts, not for the weekly one, I was too optimistic, this is M$land after all :(
