How is this an Outlook calendaring question?

well, i had to set my preference font 504 different times to the _same_
values!

they could _greatly_ reduce that number if they allowed system-wide
default for for instance: 'rules for this view', and 'colunm headings and
rows'

i suspect that somewhere in the registry the fonts for these common view
elements must be stored for sure ..

and if there _were_ a registry trick to this, it would most certainly
work in other situations with other apps as well ..

here's how i got that number 504:

detail: calculation

well, i created many different views ..

calendar : 13
mail : 7
contacts : 8
tasks : 33
notes : 11
--------
72 views
... and for every one of these views i had to run the 'customize view'
panel, and click 2 buttons ..

other settings, for
- colunm font
- row font
- autopreview font

automatic filtering, for
- however many rules that applied for the view in focus (say
average: 4)

total number of fonts to set per view: 7


... to set - time and time again the same fonts (72 * 7 = 504 times [!] )
