How to set date up like Mon 1 July 2006 in Outlook?

[Sarami]

When in the Outlook calendar, trying to set up a meeting, how can I format
the calendar so that both the day of the week and the date appear? For
example, Mon 31 July 2006. Currently it only reads 31 July 2006.

That's done with the Regional and Language Options control panel applet.
Click Customize to the right of the language drop-down, choose the Date tab
and Modify the Long date format. Adding "dddd" to the front of the string
in the drop-down (you can type in it - you don't have to accept only what
the drop-down shows) will add the week day name spelled out (i.e., Monday)
and adding "ddd" will add a short weekday name (i.e., Mon).

Your solution worked for displaying the week day name, but not the year. I
would also like to increase the font size.

Details: In Regional and Language Options, Englsih (Canada) Customize, my
long date format is dddd, MMMM d, yyyy. The date shown above today's events
is Tuesday, September 18. I want the year to appear aft the date but it is
absent. I also want the font to be larger. Could you please tell me how to do
this?

Above the calendars, at the upper right of my display, just to the left of a
tiny representation of a calendar, there appears September 18, 2007. This
font is the correct size, but I would like the week day name to precede it.
Could you please tell me how to do this?

those are hard coded by outlook - you can only control whether or not the
day of the week shows in the large calendar.
