Hi

I am not entirely clear about your question very much.
Do you mean the content in the Tasks, Calendar or else?
Could you please elaborate?
Here some VBA code for your reference?
You may try to run them in the Outlook VBA environment to see if that is
what you want?

Dim fd As MAPIFolder
Set fd = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar)
Dim ci As AppointmentItem
For Each ci In fd.Items
Debug.Print ci.ConversationTopic
Next

I Require to create an outlook view:
create a view for an outlook calendar that can display at the same time two
different outlook calendar views
- on one side, the view will display the contents of an outlook calendar in
the day\week\month view, using the month option of that view
- on the other side, the view will display the contents of that same
outlook calendar in the events view, or optioanally - any list oriented view.

I am looking for a best practice.

Hi

Ok, I understand your question now.
Based on my experience, it is hard to do that.
Even in the UI operation, when we define a new view, we must select one
view type(Table,TimeLine...), we can not select two in one time.
I will try to do further research, and I will get back here and update you
with new information ASAP.

Hi

Based on my further research, there is no direct way to do this. But, we
can create an HTML page that contains 2 Outlook View Controls and then set
it as the "Folder Home Page" for the Calendar folder.

Paste the following into an HTML, save it to your hard drive, view the
properties for your Calendar folder, on the "Home Page" tab, select the
HTML file. Click "Apply". If you get a dialog about not being able to set
offline settings, click OK, then use the X at the top right to close the
dialog.

Peter:

your post was very helpful.
I had some minor problems implementing the solution, mainly because the view
types
are language sensitive ( my users use Hebrew ), but great help.

Tnx.
