Understanding Calendar Windows

When you open a calendar entry, whether it is for an appointment, an event, or a meeting, Outlook launches a calendar window. (Note that the options available in the calendar window differ slightly depending on what type of calendar entry the window contains.)

Office Button

This button provides access to oft-used commands, such as Save, Delete, Print, and more.

Quick Access Toolbar

Like the Office button, the Quick Access toolbar offers access to frequently used commands. You can customize this toolbar, removing commands that appear there by default and adding others you use more often.

Ribbon

In lieu of the traditional menus and toolbars, message windows feature the Ribbon — that is, a tabbed area in which commands are organized in logical groups.

Subject/Location

Information about the subject and location of the calendar entry can be entered or located here.

Start Time/End Time

Information about the start date and time and end date and time can be entered or located here.

Notes

Read or enter notes about the calendar entry.
