Sharon,
Unless Brian gets himself a copy of Office XP (which most people don't
have, it seems) it's unlikely that this issue will be addressed; but at
least it's workable.
Glad to have tried to help at least!

Carol,
First of all, please accept my apologies for the late reply, I've been a
bit busy at work and home and not read e-mails as much as I would have
liked.
Many thanks for your help, I'm glad it's not something I did wrong
anyway. I will give up on relying on day view, and go back to the other
ways of navigating around.
If any scripts do come out, hopefully they will consider XP next time.
Thanks again, you've been really helpful.
Sharon

Hi Sharon,
OK, as I thought, you're using exactly the same version of Outlook as I
am, though I didn't recognise it until George reminded me of its
equivalent . . ..
You're right: The Day View doesn't work correctly with this version of
scripts from Brian Hartgen. (We had considerable discourse about this
at the time he wrote them.) Unfortunately, Brian doesn't have a copy of
Outlook XP and so was unable to do anything further to the scripts. The
work-around, as you suggested, is at least not to rely on the Day View.
I probably use Day View most of the time, but don't look for
appointments using the cursor keys. In fact, it's true to say that,
although I write appointments quite correctly into my calendar, I
usually need to look them up on my PacMate which shows everything
correctly.
However, with the scripts you can still use the Goto command, which in
Outlook is pretty flexible as you can write the date format pretty way
anyhow. So, what I tend to do if looking up an appointment with Outlook
on the desktop is simply to Goto a day and tab around. The scripts
certainly make it very possible to work around, even if we haven't got
quite the same flexibility as others.
I hope this helps and at least gets you far enough. I'm sorry I
couldn't clarify things before now but I wanted to check one or two
points for clarity in my own mind and that also that the scripts Brian
has there are the same ones that I'm now using, which they are.
Incidentally, the AM and PM thing are OK too as long as you are sure to
check your Day View before tabbing around, then you're sure to read AM
where you mean it.
If you want to talk about this further, email me at
carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx
and I'll give you a call, if you can let me have a number.
Cheers now.
