Create an all-day event
 

An event is an activity that lasts 24 hours or longer.

  1. In Calendar, on the Actions menu, click New All Day Event.
  2. In the Subject box, type a description.
  3. In the Location box, enter the location.
  4. Select any other options you want.

    To indicate to people viewing your calendar that you are out of office (out of office: Blocks of time marked out of office appear with a solid availability indicator and a shaded appointment background, and they are shown as unavailable when other people view your Calendar.) instead of free (free: Free time appears with a clear availability indicator and is seen as available when others view your Calendar. An appointment of zero duration, while visible in the selected block of time when viewing days, shows as free time to others.), in the Show time as list, click Out of Office.

    If the event lasts longer than one day, change the values in the Start time and End time boxes.

  5. To make the event recur, on the Actions menu, click Recurrence, select the the options you want, and then click OK.
  6. Click Save and Close.
