U.S. Holidays in Outlook

I'm using Professional Plus 2007 and it tells me that Holidays are already
installed. But I can't see the holidays. What am I forgetting to click?

Well, how are you trying to see them? What type of mail server are you
using? How many PST files are configured? Do you have a filter configured
on the Calendar (does it say 'Filter Applied' in the lower left)?

I have created a second calendar. The first calendar shows the Holidays. I
need the Holidays to be visible in the second calendar, too. When I open the
monthly view of the second calendar, I cannot see any Holidays. For that
matter, I cannot see Holidays in the Weekly or Daily or any other view of the
second calendar. When I print the calendar, the Holidays do not print. I do
not see "Filter Applied". I work at a hospital and do not know what mail
server we use. Thank you for your help.

Ah, well, that explains it. Tools - Options - Calendar Options - Add
Holidays (or whatever) only adds to your primary calendar. It doesn't add
to whatever calendar you are in. You'd need to manually copy the items to
the second calendar. Try the Events view, group by Category and copy all
the Holiday category to the second calendar.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I should have figured that out for myself. Sometimes it
takes a thunk in the forehead. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
