Greetings! Is it possible to modify either OlCalndr.dot or myolcal.dot so
that Word only retrieves a certain category or label of events in the
Calendar? I'm attempting to generate 3 separate calendars (by category) now
rather than all categories on 1 calendar. I figure I can have 3 different
templates - but how to narrow each template to specific category? Using
Outlook and Word 2003. Thanks!

It's been awhile since I used it but you have at least one option - this
will be easier than editing the template if you don't know VBA. I forget if
you can create a filtered view and it will use the filtered data - if that
does not work, copy the data to a new calendar and use the new calendar.

I have played with VBA some, but certainly don't know it well enough. This
particular Outlook Calendar is a sub-calendar of my main and filtered views
don't work. However, I think I can maybe sort by category and print to file?
I'm doing 3 calendars for 3 hospitals - it's just getting too big to manage
on one now. Was hoping for a quick way to pull into Word without a lot of
re-formatting. Thanks for your comments; have a good one!
