Helpdesk FYI
|
| The easiest way to create a personal task is in the To-Do Bar that we discussed in a previous Benchmarks Online article. Once your To-Do Bar is open, simply click on the date that you wish to schedule an appointment. As an example I will click on January 17th. The Calendar window will appear. I will type in “Weekly Staff Meeting” at 2 pm. Now I double click on this appointment to bring up the Appointment Dialog Box. |
 |
| In the Appointment Window I can add more details to the appointment, set location, importance, and appointment length. I can also set the recurrence. If you would like to invite others to join the meeting, simply select Invite Others, and chose the names from the address book of those you wish to invite. |
 |
 To
directly assign tasks go to File>New > Task. The Task
Window should now appear. In this window you can select
the start and end date, priority, and recurrence. In
addition you can choose to include a reminder. |
There are many options in Outlook’s Task Management system to help you stay organized. I hope this brief overview has encouraged you to explore them.
