Question Outlook all-day appointments

I use Outlook 2002 on the PC and WM5 on the Axim. I have just noticed that in calander views other than Day there is no display of all-day events.

I can't find any switch to turn them on and hadn't noticed this earlier. Also nothing has changed on either system lately.

Am I dim and can't see what to change to get them to show up? Or is there something I can do to make them appear?

I noticed that all-day appointments are marked with a thin bold line at the begining of the day. It is not easily seen.

Hmm Outlook calender symbols

Thanks lenrev - you are right. And there is more......

On the week view, any day that has an all-day event has a thin line down the side. Days with a wide line down the side are multi day all-day events (I think)

On the month view the shape of the symbol in any day shows what sort of event it is. So:
A hollow square is an all day event
A filled square is a day with both AM and PM events
A hollow square outside a filled square is both of the above
A right angled filled triangle with the 90 degree angle up and left is a day with a PM event
A right angled filled triangle with the 90 degree angle down and right is a day with a PM event

However, days with an all-day event and events only AM OR PM do not show a hollow square with a triangle inside - which is odd!

Anyone cast any more light on it - or define other symbols I haven't seen?
