SYMPTOMS
Choosing to show Sunday as the first day of the week in Microsoft Outlook 98, has no effect on the Weekly Calendar display or on the Weekly Calendar printout.



CAUSE
The Weekly Calendar display always displays Saturday and Sunday together in a single day cell. Because Sunday is always below Saturday in that cell, it is not possible to display Sunday as the first day of the week.



MORE INFORMATION
Choosing Sunday as the first day of the week in Monthly views works as expected if you first turn off the option to Compress weekend days.

To turn off Compress Weekend Days, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the View menu, point to Current View and click Customize Current View.
 * 2) On the View Summary dialog box, click Other Settings.
 * 3) In the Month section, click to clear the Compress Weekend Days check box. Click OK and OK to close the open windows.

NOTE: The small monthly calendar displayed in Day/Week/Month view always displays the correct "First day of week" choice, even with the Compress Weekend Days option turned on.

How to Print Sunday First in The Weekly Style
The following steps, while not affecting display, allow you to print a week from your calendar with Sunday as the first day of the week and Saturday as the last day of the week.
 * 1) Open your calendar and on the View menu, click Week.
 * 2) On the View menu, point to Current View, and then click Customize Current View.
 * 3) Click Other Settings, and then click to uncheck Compress weekend days. Click OK and OK to close all dialogs.
 * 4) On the Tools menu, click Options, and under the Preferences tab, click Calendar Options.
 * 5) Under Calendar work week make sure all seven days are checked, and then set the "First day of week" list to Sunday. Click Ok and OK to close all dialogs.
 * 6) On the File menu, click Print.
 * 7) In the Print style click Weekly Style, and then click Define Styles.
 * 8) Check that the Weekly Style is selected in the list of print styles, and then click Edit.
 * 9) Under Options set Arrange to Left to right, and then click to check Don't Print Weekends. Click OK and then Close to return to the Print dialog.
 * 10) Click Print to print the current week with Sunday at the beginning of the week.
