In Outlook 2007, when I look at other people's schedules (Plan a Meeting or
Scheduling Assistant), it now shows all 24 hours a day. Since I seldom
schedule meetings at 3 AM, I'd like the default to be my work hours but see
no setting for this. Can it be changed?

[Yes, this is my third posting about defaults in Outlook! Maybe the defaults
should be settable from where the option is used.]

Outlook's timed views always show all 24 hours. You can't configure them to
show only working hours.

I'll end this with a comment about the program. Settings for something used
very frequently, affecting how we work, should have defaults that can be set.
The old Outlook displayed work hours-- I don't know if it was a default or
the only way it worked. But the new way is hard to use since each day is now
much wider than before. This would be useful for working with people in India,
but not for people in adjacent time zones. So I have to change the display
each time I use it. In other words, the default is wrong for me. (Just in
case you relay comments to Microsoft.)

Every Outlook version I've used, from Outlook 97 to Outlook 2010, has shown
all 24 hours in the views with time scales, but colored the working hours
differently than the non-working hours. I don't recall that ever changing.

That's funny because I don't remember ever seeing the nighttime hours on the
scheduler. Maybe it's set up on installation?
