Sep 28, 2006

Microsoft Outlook has integrated features that combine Email, a Calendar, Tasks list and a Note pad. Some items also come from Word, Microsoft's word processing program.

Contacts

Contacts are used to save information including names and phone numbers, email addresses and other information for people you contact often.

Create a New Contact

Contacts in the Outlook Shortcuts bar

The General tab is where most of the business information is stored. Click in the white box next to "Full Name... ," Type the person's first name, then their last name. Click on the down pointing arrow next to the white box that says "File as:," click on the last name first name option for your file order. Click in each white box and type in corresponding information or leave blank.

The other tabs allow for more personal information. For example, the Activities tab shows email messages sent to or received from the contact. The Certificates tab is used for digital IDs to encrypt messages sent to the contact person.

The down pointing arrow to the right of the phone numbers, allows you to change the description of the field and enter additional numbers.

The Message box allows you to enter additional information that may not fit into an existing field.

When you finish entering the information, left click on Save and New, (to continue to add new contacts) or left click on Save and Close.

Create a New Contact from an Existing Contact

When setting up a new company in your contacts, there may be several people you will want to contact often. New contacts can be set up quickly from existing contacts. Open the contact or set up the first person from the company, left click on Actions, New Contact From Same Company.

Edit Contacts

Edit a contact by left clicking on Contacts in the Outlook Shortcuts bar. Left click on the contact to select it, double click to open the contact to be changed. Make desired changes, click Save And Close when finished.
