Tips and Tricks - Microsoft Outlook 2007

The To-Do Bar

This tool orchestrates the various tasks you need to act on, displaying tasks from the Tasks list, messages flagged for follow-up, upcoming appointments, and more. If you don't see the To-Do Bar, open the View menu in the Office Outlook 2007 window, point to To-Do Bar, and click. If it is minimised in your display, click the double-arrow to maximise it.

You can add e-mail items to the To-Do Bar several ways:

  • Add a flag to an e-mail message (or contact)
  • Drag an e-mail message to the To-Do Bar

When you have finished one of the tasks or follow-up items, mark them complete by following these steps:

  • If the item is an appointment, it will be automatically removed when the scheduled end-time is reached. If the appointment is completed early and you wish to remove the appointment from the bar, right click the item and select Delete. However, this will also delete the appointment from the Calendar
  • If the item is an e-mail message or contact you flagged for follow-up, right-click it and choose Mark Complete. This will remove the item from the bar, but leave the item in the Mail, Contacts, or Tasks list
  • If the item is an e-mail message or contact you flagged for follow-up, right-click it and choose Delete. This will remove it from all the lists.
