When you configure Outlook to connect to a different type of account, Outlook also connects to the associated calendar. Some Internet email accounts also have associated calendars. If you have a Microsoft Exchange Server account, a calendar is part of that account.
And because you can also set up Outlook on your mobile device, you can be assured of having up-to-date schedule information available wherever and whenever you need it. You can schedule and track appointments, meetings, and events, and block time as a reminder to yourself to take care of tasks. If you’re a busy person and use the Outlook calendar to its fullest potential, it might at times seem as though the calendar runs your life-but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing! Using the calendar effectively can help you stay organized, on time, and on task. You can use the Outlook 2016 calendar to organize your daily activities and to remind you of important tasks and events. No practice files are necessary to complete the practice tasks in this chapter.
