Outlook - Tips and Tricks
This pages collects my tips and tricks for the changes I usually do to customise my Outlook.
Move navigation pane to the bottom
In the newer versions of Outlook the navigation pane (with the Mail/Calendar/Contacts) buttons are in the left hand side of the Windows. I like the old version with the navigation pane below the folder pane. This behaviour can be changed in a setting in the following location:
File
> Options
> Advanced
> Uncheck Show Apps in Outlook
Show week numbers in the calendar view
In Sweden week numbers and weekdays are often used to used in lieu of using the date. I am able to show these in the different calendar view in Outlook by setting it up in the following place:
File
> Options
> Calendar
Setup calendar according to ISO 8601
Section Work Time
- For
First day of the week
> SelectMonday
- For
First week of the year
> SelectFirst 4-day week
Show weeks
Section Display Options
- Check
Show week numbers in the month view and in the Date Navigator
