The colours depend on what categories you put the events in, and what calendar they are in ...

To Edit the Calendar Colours, go to the Calendar View and right click on the calandar concerned and select Properties.... Click on the colour panel to change colour.

Now for the Categories go to Tools > Options >Lightning ... Select the Categories tab, and click on the Category in question and click on Edit...

great!!

one last question. the color change is just the right side of the tab vs the entire tab. is this correct or do i need to change another setting to accomplish this?

thanks!!

The Calendar supplies the main colour, with the category supplying the bit at the end...

Look here...

As you can see.... I have calendars coded red and Green... Also I have categories coded pink and blue.
