Is there any way we can change the color of a cell in the Month View.  I need to have three colors to be diaplyed. Say the whole scenario is such that I want to show days for which I have no appointment in red. Days for which I am having Task assigned for the whole day to be displayed in Green and days for which I have task assigned for some hours only to be displayed in yellow.

You can do this for Office 2007 theme only.
It has extra customization features.

CalendarThemeOffice2007 object has many parameters like fonts, colors, sizes, etc for each Calendar object (like days, events, headers ...)
Changing these parameters is applied to all objects of such type.

The general idea of dynamic customization that calendar send special notification
  XTP_NC_CALENDAR_BEFORE_DRAW_THEMEOBJECT
which allows you to change drawing parameters for each object separately.

For how to use calendar notifications see: CCalendarDemoView::CCalendarDemoView()

For optimization, this notification is sent only for objects which specified in
BeforeDrawFlags member.
When you set theme, make the following call:    
  pTheme2007->SetBeforeDrawFlags(xtpCalendarBeforeDraw_MonthViewDay);
See also:
    XTPCalendarBeforeDrawThemeObject enum.


Example of code to set day background color: 

void CCalendarDemoView::OnBeforeDrawThemeObject(XTP_NOTIFY_CODE Event, WPARAM wParam , LPARAM lParam)
{
  ASSERT(Event == XTP_NC_CALENDAR_BEFORE_DRAW_THEMEOBJECT);
  CXTPCalendarThemeOffice2007* pTheme2007 = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPCalendarThemeOffice2007, GetCalendarCtrl().GetTheme());
  ASSERT(pTheme2007);
  if (!pTheme2007)
    return;

  if (wParam == xtpCalendarBeforeDraw_MonthViewDay)
  {
    CXTPCalendarMonthViewDay* pDay = (CXTPCalendarMonthViewDay*)lParam;
 
    if (pDay->GetDayDate().GetDayOfWeek() == 3)
    {
      pTheme2007->GetMonthViewPartX()->GetDayPartX()->m_clrBackgroundDark = RGB(196, 128, 128);
      pTheme2007->GetMonthViewPartX()->GetDayPartX()->m_clrBackgroundLight = RGB(230, 128, 128);
      pTheme2007->GetMonthViewPartX()->GetDayPartX()->m_clrBackgroundSelected = RGB(128, 228, 228);
    }
  }
}
Code to advice notification:
  m_Sink.Advise(ptrCalendarConn, XTP_NC_CALENDAR_BEFORE_DRAW_THEMEOBJECT, &CCalendarDemoView::OnBeforeDrawThemeObject);
