I'd like to download a calendar into my Axim that will give me the holidays (particularly American and Jewish). Any suggestions?
And how do I do it?
Thanks

Shoot! Someone talked about this a little while ago. I am pretty sure it was at Handango, but gosh darned if I can remember what it was called.

Pretty easy if your using Outlook ... For the basic holidays ... Run the Outlook 2000 Add-in: Holiday Updates ...

I think you can do it with Outlook. I also found this at Handango:

Pocket Holiday Plus . Here is what it does:



ARLiteSoft's Pocket Holidays Plus is a comprehensive holidays and events software. Pocket Holidays Plus provides a complete listing of the following for calendar years 2002, 2003, and 2004:

U.S. Federal Holidays

Major Events such as Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Seasons, etc.

Major Jewish and Islamic Holidays

Major Financial Holidays and Events including FOMC Meeting Dates

Key Moon Dates

Plus more...



Pocket Holidays Plus provides intuitive views to perform the following:

View Birthdays and Anniversaries

View Federal, Jewish, Islamic, and Financial Holidays and Events

View Moon Dates

View Special Events

My Holidays and Events - Customized view to show holidays and events you are interested in.

Pocket Holidays Plus allows you to create your own holidays and events. It also links to your Outlook Contacts to extract birthdays and anniversaries for everyone in your Contacts.

It is only $8.99. I have never used it nor am I endorsing it ;). Just trying to give you some ideas :). Good luck!

Thanks. Downloaded same & installed. Here are the directions after installation.

Add holidays for a country to my Calendar
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Preferences tab.


Click Calendar Options.


Click Add Holidays.


Select the check box next to the country with the holidays you want to add to your Calendar.
Note To add holidays to a calendar other than your Outlook Calendar, manually copy the holidays to the other calendar.

Thank you all - you're great and fast.
your suggestions worked perfectly!
I love this board!
next question
Where can I download a program so I can really see all my activities for a week?
I used to have one on my old palm.

On your base computer, turn on the US Holidays as well as the Jewish Religious holidays. When you sinc your calendar the holidays should appear.

Try Calender +. You can set it to display up to 31 days of your schedule on your today screen.
