Why not provide all Outlook users with a simple availalble down load to post
current holidays (with & without Lunar / moon data) to their calendars? As it
stand now MS has ABANDONED ITS LONGSTANDING GOOD O/L CUSTOMERS by not making
available downloadable Calendar holidays so those of us who use prior
versions of OL can keep our calendars current.

DanO,
Were you looking for National Holidays, from all of the world's countries?
State Holidays? Secular Holidays? Religious Holidays? All Religions? All
sects within each Religions? All Religions by Country? All languages?
Or maybe you want Microsoft to provide one for your own local situation?

My suggestion applied to what I think most in the US would want, which is
what is already typically found on most all printed calendars sold here for
many many years [US Natl Holidays, State, Secular, Religious (those currently
and normally shown on most paper calendars sold in US today), Language =
English; plus the Lunar (moon cycle) data previously mentioned].

Someone else provided me with a link to an existing download for the same
holidays (2003-2007) MS included within the product when it shipped. I’ve
already downloaded and installed it. However, as with its predecessor, it too
does not contain any of the Lunar (moon/cycle) data whatsoever, generally
seen on most printed calendars. So I’m still looking for that. Their input
came within another of the multiple posts I inadvertently / unintentionally
created for this topic. See:

Thanks for your input and time.

This site pgm appears provide much more than what I'm actually looking
for/need. I'm only looking for what one would see on a typical wall calendar,
which is just a simple graphic representation of the moon (i.e. moon qtrs --
full, half, qtr, new moon) shown within the calendar on the dates in which
those events occur. I've actually no need for all the other stuff they seem
to include for each of what they call Lunar Event Schedules (i.e. eclipse
data, etc.).

Well, then, make your own holiday file containing only what you want to see.
Full instructions are on the Office web site.
