  • Thank you for the information!

    Good to see another guru around here.

    Peace.
  • Ive been dying to figure out a way to make outlook today more user friendly. Ive wanted to be able to see an email list and a to-do list with a small calendar on the same page, but the customize options from MS are downright pathetic. It's as if they dont want you to even use the page.

    Of course, the only problem now is, Im scared to death to try to follow the instructions youve got here. Is there any way to do this for someone who is generally pretty tech savvy, but cant afford to screw up his outlook mail?

    Perhaps just more detailed instructions would do it. Any other sites I should look at to figure this out?
  • Years ago I already created a dashboard that has (nearly) all information in one screen. Works allright on 1024, but better at higher resolutions. They both work in Outlook and IE (not in other browsers):
    http://www.opm.ctw.utwente.nl/staff/G.M._Bonnem... (with Verse of the Day)
    or
    http://www.opm.ctw.utwente.nl/staff/G.M._Bonnem... (with Dutch news, may not work for you)

    To have everything working, you need to define in outlook calendar the following views: Day Month Week WorkWeek.

    Greetings and have fun.

  • Good tip. Unfortunately, the external links to the dashboard examples in the recipe don't work.

    Images in recipe's need to be stored on site here so they don't get lost.
