In the Calendar, you can add and delete country-specific
holidays.
Add Holidays to the Calendar
To add holidays to the Calendar, follow these steps:
- On the Tools menu, click Options.
- On the Preferences tab, click Calendar Options and then
click Add Holidays.
- Click to select the appropriate country, and click OK.
If you have already added a country's holidays, you will see a
check next to the country name. If you try to add the same country again, you
receive the following error message:
Holidays for
<country> are already installed.
Do you want to install them again?
If you click Yes, the holidays will install a second time and you
will see duplicate holiday entries.
Remove Holidays from the Calendar
To remove holidays from the Calendar, follow these steps:
- Open your Calendar. On the View menu, point to Current
View, and then click Events.
In Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, this step is slightly different. Open your Calendar. On the View menu, point to Arrange By, click Current View, and then click Events.
- Click the Location column heading to sort the list of
holidays by country.
- Click to select the first holiday you want to delete.
- Hold down SHIFT and click the last holiday you want to
delete.
- Press DELETE to remove all the selected holidays from your
Calendar.
For more information about adding or deleting Holidays,
click Microsoft Outlook Help on the Help menu, type "Holidays" in the Office
Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topics
returned.

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
