Default Outlook Calendar should highlight the pesent day so it stands out

I clicked "I Agree" so that this problem, (yes, problem), is addressed.

Perhaps others who are visually challenged (anyone else over 50?), would
agree that the current day can hardly be seen in the month view. In fact, I
can only see the slightly shaded greyish bar if I already know what day to
look for.

There needs to be a much better option to highlight the current day in
calendar view. Perhaps an orange frame, anything, but I cannot ever find the
current day via the current highlighting.

Could ADA apply? Microsoft has been a leader by including accessible
technology for their interfaces. But this Outlook 2003 current day
hightlighting is terrible. Do I sound upset? Well, yeah. I paid a lot for
Office 2003 Professional and I would expect that my most used application, my
most necessary application for daily business would help me, and this one
sore point really disables me.

Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now. I'm glad that I upgraded my Office 2000
to 2003. There are several features and advantages that I'm happy to have.

But please, please help me find the current day on my calendar!

Thanks sincerely,
Edro
