Can I add colors/options to the "Show time as" calendar field?

We'd like to add an additional option to the Outlook 2003 Show time as in the calendar that would appear for all users viewing other people's calendars.

Currently, if a user is working at a client site for a day, they mark their calender as Out of office. We'd like to have a category/color that is Client Site indicating they are physically out of the home office, but could still be available for web meetings, phone calls, etc. so people trying to schedule with the off-site user would know.

Any ideas if this is possible?
 
In the Outlook Calendar, select the Calendar Coloring icon in the standard toolbar (looks like a 3x3 colored tabel). Here you have the option to Edit Calendar Labels. You can select a Label, like Phone Call and edit it to say Client Site. Now when an employee is going to be a Client's Site they can select this Label and the color and description of the label should be obvious to others when viewing their Calendar. Hope this meets your needs.
