Is it possible to change the default to Month instead of Week for the calendar view?  If yes, how?

    Hi USA80,

    The other "calendar control" you are using shows the same format as the screenshot I provided?

    So what was the first calendar control you used?

    How many calendar controls do you have in your environment?

    In my version of the environment, there is only one control left named Calendar:

    I actually had to use the other "calendar control" as the V2 wouldn't read my settings that I had in my personnal settings area.  Then it worked.

    Hi USA80,

    Based on your screenshot, it seems to be the reason for choosing a different calendar control.

    The default view setting only works with the new "Calendar Control V2".

    My calendar Control shown(It should be Calendar Control V2):

    Apply the control to the Activity table:

    That didn't work.  I had mine on Day, and the view was defaulting to Week. I changed the setting to Month and it still defaulted to week.

    Hi USA80, 

    The result is that Default Calendar View depends on personal settings.

    Have each user refer to the screenshot below to edit their personal settings.

    Personalization Settings > Activities tab > Default view:

    ==================================

    If you need, we can manage users personal settings in bulk through third-party tool--User Settings Utilit, which is one built-in plugin of XrmToolBox

    How to use it?
