11. The timing of my appointments is wrong by one hour. Some whole day events are spreading over two days.
Check your time zone settings both in Outlook (Tools | Options | CalendarOptions) and your PC (Start | Settings | Control Panel | Date and Time) to make sure they are correct.
To fix the existing appointments, set your clock back so the appointments are at the correct times. Export your appointments to a comma separated values (CSV) file. Now, create a new calendar folder and move the appointments to it (as a backup).
Finally, set your clock back to the current, correct time and import the CSV back into Outlook.
12. Outlook 2000 does not display holidays

15. I want the name of the day/month, not the number, to display and print on my calendar.
You need to change the long date on the computer to use names.
Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel > Regional Settings and change the date settings.
16. When I send an appointment from Outlook 2003 to 2000, it only appears as a text message, and there is no option to add it to the calendar.
Omit the reminder. Outlook 2000 has an iCalendar incompatiblity
