Meeting A meeting is similar to an appointment. The difference is that you invite other people to it.

Click in the main Calendar grid to select the time for your appointment, richt-click and then click New appointment on the shortcut menu Use the New Appointment button on the Standard Toolbar (show them where it is) Use the New Appointment on the Actions Menu (show this) With practice you will use whichever seems more comfortable to you.

The Sniffer then updates the Calendar and the requests themselves with the relevant information . For example, you can look in the Infobar to see the responses that the sniffer has counted in your inbox.

Tip This is your best choice when you do not want the next reminder for a task to appear until the previous one is marked as complete. If you do not mark the item complete, the next reminder will never appear. For example, if you have a reminder to pay your utility bill on the 15th of each month and you do not mark the occurrence on April 15th as complete, in May you will still see the not yet completed April 15th task. Only after you mark the April 15th task as complete does the May 15th occurrence of the task appear. Click OK to close the Task Recurrence dialog box. If you want to add a reminder alert, select the Reminder check box, and then enter the date and time for the reminder. You can specify a custom sound to be played with your reminder.
