Default Outlook 2000 Calendar Text Entry query. Help!

Husband and I are both retired and have never used Outlook before, even
though it's installed on our home computer.

Now that we have more time on our hands, we're using the Outlook monthly
calendar: we print out a "blank" month at a time, pop the page into a ring
bind folder, and then write (by hand) notes on the various days.

We would like to be able to do this on-screen though, rather than with a pen!

We're planning a day-by-day schedule for a holiday next February but we
cannot work out how to "write" timetable notes into the squares for each
separate day.

We have tried to do this in monthly calendar view, but can only get one line
to appear. When we "write" another line, it appears above the original entry,
and so the timing sequence is wrong.

When we enter information into the "day" calendar, it appears in the monthly
view with strange times so that for a 7.30am departure, the entry comes up as
07.00 07.30.

We don't need Outlook 2000 to schedule business appointments or meetings or
share with contacts etc, just the Outlook calendar to simply input
day-by-day notes to ourselves which can then be printed out in hard copy form.

I know this will seem very, very elementary to experienced users, but sadly,
we're completely lost! Advice really would be appreciated. Thanks!
