Summary

If you're like most people, your messaging and collaboration programs are your professional and personal lifelines. That's why you need the Microsoft Office Outlook 2003: Visual QuickStart Guide. Of all the programs in Microsoft "Office 11", Outlook (the popular messaging and collaboration software) promises to change the most-and this is the guide that will get you up to speed most rapidly. From Outlook's streamlined interface to a slew of new features for managing email to an improved mobile email experience that allows you to transfer between data connections with little or no interruption, this task-based guide covers it all. Using step-by-step instructions and loads of screen shots, veteran author Jim Boyce shows you how to take advantage of all of Outlook's applications-email, scheduling, collaboration, contact and task management, and information sharing. Peppered throughout are the insider tips and techniques people have come to expect from the popular Visual QuickStart Series. If you're new to Outlook, you'll be able to dive into the program quickly, and if you're an Outlook old hand, you can skip straight to the areas that interest you most.
