I have Outlook 2003 that is syncing up with an Exchange Server. In the
Mailbox area I goto the calendar and under calendar coloring I goto Automatic
Formatting.

I enter the formatting rules and the calendar appointments turn the
appropriate color. Once I sync up with Exchange I lose the Automatic
Formatting rules and the colors are no long there. I have done this a few
times with the same result.

It is as though the process of syncing is losting the Automatic Formatting
rules.

Any suggestions as to how to correct this?

those are views - is the view getting reset or changed?

I am having the same problem, except the computer is always talking to
exchange and the automatic formatting dissapears, but I cannot seem to find a
pattern as to when it dessapears. One day they will be there the next
automatic formating is empty and all the colors are gone.

To my knowledge the view is not getting reset. The same appointments appear,
the coloring is gone and the business rules are also gone.
