I had the same problem. When I changed the "Show time as" field from "Busy"
to "Tentative", all my dates became bold.

Bolding in the Date Navigator only occurs on days that contain appointments
that are marked as "Busy", "Tentative" or "Out of Office", and that are
within 10 months into the past and 2 months into the future. Appointments
that are further into the past or future will not cause bolding, nor will
appointments or events marked as "Free".

This is a problem of convenience. I am running Outlook 2002 with XP
Home. When I bring up the calendar, none of the dates containing
reminders are bold in the date navigator.

The box is checked to display bold dates in the Calendar's current
view settings.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
