XP/Outlook2003 Problem: Deselect Name in 'Other Calendars' does not work properly (keeps 'Selected Items'-font)
Hi,
and first of all, sorry for the excessive crosspost - but I think although the issue only seems like an Outlook problem, it might have something to do with the Display - Appearance Settings in XP. The following thing happens within my Outlook (and is quite annoying): Calendar - 'Other Calendars' pane. Select a calendar by clicking on a name or the checkbox - the calendar is displayed correctly. Deselect the calendar by clicking the name or the checkbox again - the calendar is not displayed anymore. But now, also the name is not displayed anymore - only the checkbox! Or, to be precise, the name is displayed with white font on the white background! Here is where the Appearance Settings come into play: The name seems to keep the 'Selected Items'-property (Display Properties - Appearance - Advanced - Item - Selected Items), which is Windows Standard: Tahoma / 8pt / white. If I change the colour of this font, I can see the name with the changed colour. Of course, I would very much prefer not to change the standard colour for all my windows applications, but to correct this bug. Things I already tried: Re-install SP2, Uninstall Outlook, reboot, Install Outlook 2003 again. Start Outlook with /resetnavpane (it worked for this session, but not for the next session without /resetnavpane - and I would like to keep the 'Other Calendars' from session to session) Delete the corresponding xml-file in the application data for Outlook manually. Create a new profile from scratch. Search the internet and knowledge base. But all of this did not help. :-( Is there anything I could try to correct this? Or has anybody else experienced this bug and/or knows how to correct it? Any help would be highly appreciated! Thanks and regards, Klaus |

are you using the default windows xp theme? if not, try it using the default and see if it works as expected. Yes, the error occurs with the default XP theme and also with the Windows Classic theme (both unchanged). It seems as if Outlook just sets back the background color after deselecting the line, but keeps the 'Selected Item'-font and color for the name. Unfortunately, both are white... Klaus |
