Defaults for Events in Outlook

[Scott Welton]

How can I change Event Defaults in Outlook? For example I want to get rid of
the check in the "all day event" box, so that when I schedule an event I
don't always have to first uncheck that dang check box.

how are you opening the new appointment form? Try using the New button or
double clicking on a specific time in the day or week view.

If you're in a calendar view with no time line, double-clicking to open a
new event will always create an all day event. In a view with a time line,
double-clicking will always create an event one time slot in duration. If
you want some other behavior, use the New button to select the type of event
you want.
