Creating a New Calendar for Tasks and Whatnot

Today’s Topic: Creating a New Calendar for Tasks and Whatnot

Who? Users of Outlook.

Why? Sometimes we all need reminding. This demonstration shows you how to add an additional calendar to Outlook and then use it to schedule tasks with automatic reminders. This is especially helpful if you have recurring tasks (or appointments) you want to be reminded of.

How? Watch this short screencast:

Why F1?

Did you know that pressing the F1 key in nearly any program or application takes you to the help menu? Sure thing! Try it now--you'll get the help menu for Internet Explorer (if that's the browser you're using). Try it in PowerPoint, try it in Word, try it in a house, try it with a mouse . . . . F1 puts learning in YOUR hands. Technology changes too rapidly to only rely on trainings or printed manuals. Instead, the most savvy tech user relies on herself, knowing she can get the most help from a program's help menu. Now you can too. Of course, you can use F1 anytime you want, but here at F1 Tuesdays we'll show off some of the things we think everyone should know and even a few that may impress your friends. Our goal is to make you happy and a bit more snappy with technology.
