They need some basic information, and I have therefore recorded a few video demonstrations on how to use the Outlook calendar. These tutorials will be good for new users of TimeCard and Calendar Browser, but I hope they will be useful for others too.
Create new appointments
In my demo I show six ways to add an appointment to the Outlook calendar. You can see a list of them in the kalmstrom.com Tips article about Outlook appointments. The last method in the list is dragging an e-mail to the calendar, and the same can be done with tasks and notes.
Change and copy appointments
When you want to change the time span for an appointment, or move it to another day, you can also do it directly in the calendar, without opening the appointment first.
To copy an appointment, use the Crtl + C (= copy) and Ctrl + V (= paste) commands. These commands are very useful for copy and paste, and just like Ctrl + X for "cut" they can be used in many different contexts. When it comes to copying or cutting appointments, using these keys is actually the only way, as Microsoft has not given a button or a right click command for these functions.
My own calendar is full of different kinds of appointments, and to get a better overview I like to color code them. I code my appointments after content, so that I have one color for journeys, one color for private events, one for teaching and so on. That way I can quickly find the appointment I am looking for.
Do the same with kalmstrom.com software
With TimeCard the only difference is that you select a few tags from dropdowns in the appointments to convert them in into time reporting sheets.
After this I will record a demo about how to send, accept and change invitations in the Outlook calendar. If you liked this demo, you are welcome back!
