Color-Coded Calendar?

I rely heavily on my color-coding in Outlook, and I was disappointed when I got my Windows Mobile Device and saw that the color-coding doesn't transfer =(. It's hard to distinguish what all those colored in boxes, hollow boxes, striped boxes, triangles and triangles with squares around them mean!

Is there a plugin for the MS Mobile Calendar program that will incorporate the color coding?

You mean for your status? Like busy one color, tentative another etc.?

I use Agenda One and TodayAgenda. Agenda One as a PIM replacement and TodayAgenda to dispplay it on the Today screen, they both support color coding.

Check out Today Agenda, it may do what you want. It is much more customizable then Calender.

I use color-coding to easily see what is what, for example: Blue are times when I have to work, Red are school events/projects, Green days are appointments (doctors, haircuts, ect), and Orange days are vacation.

That's how I use my color-coding at least.

I tried all these calendar programs, they are nice, but too much for what I need. Let me clarify, I just want a program that will read the color-coded/category data from Outlook (from my PC) and automatically apply it to the days assigned on my PPC, all these programs are requiring me to re-do my color-coding!

Not sure if one exists. I use Pocket Informant & PocketBreeze and I duplicated the colors I use in Outlook so they show through PocketBreeze on the today screen.
