MS Calendar in Vista

My old calendar software doesn't work in Vista and so I have set up calendar
in Windows Vista, listed some tasks, appointments and have published it to
my folder. I have tried to print and it only shows a brief line of the
appt. There is no starting time, no information that was on a 2nd line and
the tasks do not show. I have checked all these items to
be present when published.

Also, could I import this into another software to enhance it for my
personal use in the office? Any other suggestions to get a helpful, printed
calendar?

In my experience the Vista Calendar is a pile of steaming....

Better to get a third party calendar program... eg

The printing functionality does look a bit limited.

Using 'Snipping Tool' to capture a screenshot might be another way.
Then print the image.

Start > snipping > Click the link

Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of the snipping tool. I know I had
been considering the old print screen, but this looks much better. Will
give it a try.

Word of caution if you do continue to use the Vista Calendar - it has
collapsed on me a couple of times and won't restart. So I gave up on it a
flackyware. Don't entrust it with too much...
