Lost color in calendar

F

Greetings.
I have Outlook 2000 running on XP Pro.
According to the Help, I can assign color to events in the calendar. When I
click Organize in the Calendar view, there is no 'color' choice that the
Help refers to. Also, if I select Edit>Current View>Customer current view,
the button for Automatic Formatting, Sort, and Group By are grayed out.
It seems like some option is disabled somewhere but I can't find it. I've
had to remove/install Outlook a couple of times because of other problems so
I'm wondering if something got reset somewhere.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Automatic formatting is available only in table and card views, not in day/week/month views.

OK, thanks for that. However, it is kind of moot now.
Once again I removed/installed Outlook, now I can't add appointments to my
calendar. I get the new appointment dialog OK, type all the info and Save,
but alas, it does not show up in my calendar.

Back to pen and paper I guess.

Automatic formatting is available only in table and card views, not in
day/week/month views.

No error messages? Any chance that you have a filter on the Calendar folder?
