Calendar/Task Management
When you view your calendar and the calendar of another person(s) in your company, you may want to overlay them so that you can see the best time to schedule a meeting for everyone.
There are times when you will only have limited access to e-mail, and unable to respond as quickly as you normaly would. If you are in a meeting, out of town, on vacation, etc. You can use the 'Automatic Replies' feature in Outlook to create a detailed message that will be sent to anyone who sends you an e-mail message. This process is shown using Outlook 201, but works the same in Outlook 2013.
If you are trying to set up an appointment with another individual, you can e-mail them a copy of your schedule by using Outlook 2003 and Microsoft Excel. In Outlook 2003 you have to export a portion of your calendar to an Excel spreadsheet, edit the spreadsheet, and then attach the spreadsheet to an e-mail message. This is a three part video series. In this video (part two) you will see how to edit the Excel spreadsheet to prepare to send it via e-mail.
You can change the way the mini-calendar displays in your 'To-Do' bar to make it easier for you to view. There is not a 'To-Do' Bar in Outlook 2003, but you can change how the mini-calendar displays in your calendar folder.
