You can set up a Quick Results clause for more than one type of diary occurrence, such as meetings and birthdays. In this example the clause would be:

Save Calendar Layout

After you customise Daily View, you can save your layout. You can set up several calendar layouts and use them as required. For example, one calendar layout could highlight holidays in New Zealand and Australia in different colours, and another calendar layout could highlight your meetings.
