Microsoft Outlook has become an essential business tool in the years since it was first released in the 1990s. If you work in a company that employs more than a dozen people, it’s a pretty good bet that you’ll be using Microsoft Outlook to manage your email and calendar. Whether you’re giving or taking directions, organizing meetings, collaborating on important projects, or just keeping up with business, Outlook is what you’ll use to get it done fast. Outlook has become even more important to businesses in recent years, with more companies encouraging telecommuting and hiring employees who work from home.

Outlook is not just for business use, though - far from it. Outlook is also the application of choice for millions of people who use it for their own personal communication needs. Students use it to communicate with their teachers and fellow students about academic projects. Parents use it to manage the family calendar so that everyone knows where they need to be. Hobbyists use it to communicate with other people who share their passion for whatever makes them smile, whether it’s birdwatching, woodworking, or role-playing games.

Outlook is a personal information manager that can act as your assistant in dealing with the flurry of small but important details that stand between you and the work (or play) you do. It sends and receives email, maintains your address book, schedules meetings and appointments, tracks your to-do list, and more, all in one place.

Here are just a few of the cool things it can do for you:

- Send email messages to individuals or groups, including attachments, graphics, text formatting, signature blocks, and more.
- Keep an address book of all your contacts with consistently up-to-date information.
- Manage multiple calendars (such as for work and for home) and overlay their appointments in a single view so you can make sure there aren’t any conflicts.
- Schedule a meeting and reserve a conference room in your workplace, then send out meeting invitations and track who has accepted or declined.
- Organize hundreds of little pieces of data with digital “sticky notes” that you can search, sort, and color-code.

For users who are brand-new to Outlook and those upgrading to the latest version, this book makes it simple to get going.
