Change default weekend in MS Porject 2003

[DougL]

Hi, this question came up recently "How do you change a calendar's default
weekend (Saturday-Sunday) to Friday-Saturday?" The weekends are different in
some countries around the world.
I know it can be done manually month by month by holding the control key
down, selecting the Sundays and make them working days and then repeating the
process for Friday except making them non-working days. There should be an
easy way to just say the defaults weekends are Fri-Sat vs. Sat-Sun.
Sometimes easier than it sounds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There IS an easy way, but it's different in 2003 vs. 2007

2003: click on the S's of Saturady and Sunday, click nondefault working
time, define working time
Then click on the T and the F in teh calendar header, click nonworking time.
Done.

2007: click Work Weeks, then details
Now you can select the days upper left: then similar to 2003
