Default Missing "all day events" when on Month view

I have some WM5 Calender problems on my Trinity.

When I view my calender on Month view, my "all day events" do NOT show as small square boxes.

However, if the "all day event" was created with the Trinity then it shows fine and syncs with Outlook 2003 fine.

But, if the "all day event" was created with Outlook 2003 and synced with ActiveSync 4.2 then it doesn't show.

Although my "all day events" DO show when in Day view on trinity.

Is this a known issue or am I missing something?

Thanks

As far as I haved worked out, if the all day event is set as "free" then it will not show as a box in the month view. If its set to anything else, "busy", "out of office", "tentative", it will show up in month view.

Hope this helps.

People's birthdays don't show up in Calendar. Is that normal? I could have sworn they used to show up on my HTC Wizard.

Did you set options to sync all events or only for a certain period?

I kinda forgot where you set that.

Speaking of which, is there a registry hack for making Month view the default view for Calendar?

Thanks.

Changing the events to anything BUT "free" worked.

I read that Outlook defaults All Day Events to "free" and Appointments to busy. So I had to change all birthdays, etc.

I also would love to default to Month view on PPC...
