In the 2003 version of Outlook for the New Appointment calendar object, I was 
able to change the default Show As status to Free instead of Busy.  Now in 
the 2007 version, I can't seem to find where to change this at all.  I've 
looked in Tools > Options as well as Customize.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
Kelly

No, you weren't.  That value has always defaulted to "Free" for any event 
created in a view that does not use the time scale and to "Busy" for any view 
that does use the time scale.  All Outlooks are identical in that regard.
