That tip on seeing weather was nice. But that tip on calendar overlays and sending calendar free time to another person were GOLD! The amount of time that will save me is INCREDIBLE. Vendors are ALWAYS asking me for a "good time to meet". Now I can just send them my week and let them choose. FANTASTIC! Of course, all this is predicated on you having your own calendar up to date and fully filled out.

I've been using Outlook for nearly 20 years and never thought about right clicking on the calendar or contacts to open in a second window. Also the overlay mode of the calendars and allowing side to side is a total game changer for me. Thanks for your amazing, as always, tips.

Thank you for re-re-teaching OL. Most of my work, as a volunteer is done on the Internet and from home. Importantly, two more concepts are using a TOO SMALL C: drive, and downloading Rufus to C: to build a Bootable USB b/c C: is too small (did I say 2?) I bought a 1T external SanDisk SSD to take all data and apps that won't fit onto C: because of its size. I really wish you could address these issues. Even get back in touch with me. Respectfully, NHG

I use the following categories for my work time (have others for my personal calendar): - 1:1 (because they are easy to move on a short notice), and I always write the name of the person and my own in the subject line - online - f2f - unimportant (for broadcasts and such that I can listen to if I have time, but skip without having to cancel) - marker, which is grey (for when I just block the calendar for travel time or to extend meetings that I expect will drag out in time - important (red, of course) - outside the office This gives a very good view of the day in two seconds.

Task pane and tasks at the bottom of the calendar are really useful to remember what to get done that day. While they are not appointments they are a form of deadline. Some people put slots in their calendars to work on deadlines and it is clutter or could be seen as blocked off time.
