    Hi @REYNOLDS, Dean (SFHT)

    Welcome to our forum!

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to add extra columns to a calendar day view in Outlook. The calendar view in Outlook is designed with a fixed layout that does not support adding additional columns beyond the default settings.

    Hope it helps.

    To add more columns to a calendar day in Windows, you can customize the layout using Microsoft Outlook Calendar or Windows Calendar App. Here's how to do it:

    Method 1: Using Microsoft Outlook (Most Customizable)

    1. Open Outlook and go to the Calendar tab.
    2. Switch to the Day View or Work Week View.
    3. Split the day into columns:
      • Right-click on the calendar area.
        • Select View Settings > Other Settings.
          • Adjust the Time scale to finer increments (like 15 or 30 minutes) to add visual space for more content.
          1. To display multiple calendars side-by-side as "columns":
            • Click Add Calendar > From Address Book or From the Internet.
              • This will add a new calendar viewable as a separate column.

    Method 2: Using Windows Calendar App (Limited Customization)

    1. Open the Windows Calendar App.
    2. You can't add extra columns directly, but you can link multiple calendars (like Outlook, Google, etc.) to see events from multiple sources in a unified view.
    3. Click the Settings gear icon (bottom-left) > Manage Accounts to add more calendar accounts.

    Alternative Method: Use Third-Party Calendar Apps

    If you need more customization, use third-party calendar apps like:

    • Google Calendar (Web version): Customize daily views and columns.
    • Rainlendar: Desktop widget-style customizable calendar.

    If you want more control over the number of columns, Microsoft Outlook is the best option. Let me know if you'd like more details on any of these methods!
