VBA script for custom Outlook 2010 calendar "first day of week"

Question

I need Outlook 2010 to use "week starting with the Saturday before Jan 1" as "first week of year" to match our company payroll calendar. (For example, Saturday 12/26/2015-Sunday 1/3/2016 would be "first week of 2016".) Is there
a way to do this in a VBA script?
-Thanks, zogg

Hello zogg,
The settings are stored in the registry at
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar
where 15.0 stands for Outlook
2013.
Make changes in
the Outlook settings and see which registry values change and in what way depending
on the settings you change. 
Also take a look at the How
can I get the work week and day number in VBA (outlook 2010)? page which states the following:
WW = Format(Now, "ww") & "." & Weekday(Now, vbMonday)
The "Format" function returns an expression from a string formatted with the provided "format" argument (ww in
this case, which returns the week of the year) and the Weekday() function
returns the numbered day of the week where the first day is a VBDayOfWeek enumeration
provided as the second argument (vbMonday in
this case).
