Outlook Calendar week number

I'm using Outlook 2007, and its calendar is incorrectly numbering the weeks
of the year. This is week 35 of 2006, for example, but Outlook shows it as
week 36, unless I change the week settings so that the week starts on Sunday
(01.01.2006 was a Sunday) instead of Monday. I've done this as a temporary
work-around, but it only replaces one problem with another.

I don't know if this is a bug, or if this week is considered week 36 in some
countries, but I'd like to be able to set the week to begin on Monday, and
have the current week labelled week 35, which is correct for my locale. Does
anyone know if this is possible?

Tools, Options, Calendar Options, First day of week and first week of
year. These two settings should give you the correct week numbering for
your locale.
In the US, the week starts on Sunday instead of Monday like in Germany.

Thanks for the help, that works perfectly! I hadn't noticed the option to
choose the first week of the year.
