How do I set a calendar filter for items that are marked "personal" in Outlook (checkbox)?

I would assume you use something like:
calendarfilter,2,90,[Personal] = TRUE

However, when I try this, it does not list anything.

srs

do you mean the "Sensitivity" field ?

I'd love an qiuck how-to on the calendar filter, too!

Yes, thinking too much of the title heading for the skin, and not the field on the Outlook screen.

I haven't tried it personally but this should work:

[Sensitivity] = 0 to include only "Normal" items
[Sensitivity] = 2 to include only "Private" items

SRS,

  where do you put it and how do you show it. I would like to use that.

you put it in the config file like so:

calendarfilter,2,90,[Sensitivity] = 2

and then load the filter before drawing the outlook data in the skin by:

options,calendarfilter,2

replace calendarfilter with taskfilter if you want to filter tasks instead of, or in addition to, the calendar.

let me know how it works

This did not work.

In fact, it appears that filters don't work.  For example, if I use:

calendarfilter,1,360,[Categories] = "anythingIwant"

All of my calendar items will show up.  NONE of my appointments use a category.  If I change it to:

calendarfilter,1,360,[Categories] = ""

Nothing displays.  Yet that's the way my appointments are defined.  No appointment has a Category.  As long as the "matching" string is not NULLl, I get a list of my appointments, but if it's NULL I get nothing.

The Sensitivity filter won't bring up anything, no matter what I change it to.  Any ideas?

srs

if the category specified in the filter doesn't exist then all the appts will be displayed...

I will look further into filtering the sensitivity field.

Gotcha.  Any idea why a NULL filter WON'T display the entries, when there is no category? i.e:

calendarfilter,1,360,[Categories] = ""
