SUMMARY
This article describes the different behaviors that you may experience when you create Calendar items by double-clicking an area of your calendar.



Events that Are Created in the Monthly Calendar View
If you create Calendar Events in Entourage by double-clicking the Day portion of the Day/Week/Month view of your calendar, some events appear with All Day selected. Entourage determines if an event is for a specific amount of time or for the entire day based on the Calendar view that you have selected. Days in the Monthly view do not have timed amounts defined. If you double-click Day on the Monthly view, Entourage assumes that you want to create an all day event.

Events that Are Created in the Daily Calendar View
Daily Calendar views display time in 15 minutes increments. If you double-click a specific amount of time in a Daily Calendar view, the appointment item is created with the time duration that is based on the start and end times that you selected.

If you want to create an appointment that has a time longer than the allowed 15 minutes, click the starting time for the appointment in the Daily Calendar view and then click and drag to select the complete time range for the meeting. For example, if you want to create a meeting that is from 9:30 to 12:00, click the box next to 9:30, drag the box to the box that ends at 12:00, and then double-click the block of time that you selected. The appointment will have a start time of 9:30 and an end time of 12:00.
