In this course we are going to learn how to create a calendar using Microsoft Outlook 2007. This is the summary of all I have learnt.
Using the Calendar tool, we are able to schedule activities many activities like appointments, meetings, events, or tasks. There are two ways for see what's on our Calendar; clicking alendar in the Navigation Pane, or clicking a date on the Date Navigator. Then, we are able to navigate through different days, weeks or months. The, the course explain us the differences between all the types of entry:
-Appointment: An activity that involves only us, at a scheduled time.
-Meeting: Like an appointment, but inviting other people.
-Event: It's an activity that lasts all day long, but you can do other things while an event is active.
-Task: Like an appointment, but without a scheduled time.
Create a new Calendar entry it's very easy, and we only need to do three steps: rest the pointer over the desired time in our calendar and click, type the details, and drag the handle to make the appointment longer, if we need more time. If we need to invite some people to our meeting, we have to use the Meeting Request tool, and if we are making a task and didn't finished it yet, Outlook 2007 will automatically move it forward and it will appear on the current day until we reschedule it or check it off.
Then, we made a little practise session about all the things learned, and created some new entries. After this, we made some exercices with questions about the different types of entries.
If we have some calendar entry that occurs over and over again, we don't hace to program it every week or month; there is the Recurrence feature, that allows we to set up a recurrence pattern. Outlook 2007 reminds us programated entries 15 minutes before they start, but we can change this "remind time" with a longer (or shorter) value, adjusting the settings in the Reminder box. Also, we van color-code our entries to make them more visible.
One of the new features is that if any of the invited people to a meeting it's busy, of it's "out of office" at the moment at which we have programmed it, they can say it using the border color of the calendar.
Finally, we made a new practise session, another test, and finished the course.
