views and fields of your own. Add as many fields as you need to include details such as second address, next of kin etc. Outlookís Contacts section also acts as the names and address database for the other Office applications and can be used for mail mer
ge in Word 97, for instance. The Contacts area now also includes a Find facility, providing an easy-to-use dialog box to find a name in an overcrowded list. Outlook now lets you group contacts or emails together more logically. Opening up a group and dra
gging a column heading (such as received, or sender) into it will create a hierarchical list. For example, emails sent by one person can now be nested under one group. Down the left hand side of the screen, youíll also find a task list. This is an easy-t
o-find place to store all those pending to-doís. Yellow ësticky notesí are another useful newcomer to Outlook. Use them to type any note, reminder or to-do and stick them around your programs and screen to jog your memory.
