Outlook Tip: Create Outlook Task, Note, Contact and Appointment Shortcuts - Lifehacker

productivity Add comments

I don’t use windows much at home anymore, but I still use XP at the office. Most of my day consists of sending emails to test and make sure that blackberry/pda user’s email is working. I created a shortcut to create a new email without having to open Outlook first. There is a nice long list of Outlook shortcuts mentioned in this article. It’s a great tip that saves several clicks and is sure to save you, I don’t know, five to six hours a day.

    Hi,

    IN OUTLOOK 2007

    I tried to accomplish the above, create a “Contacts” shortcut on my desktop, this I can accomplish by clicking on “contacts” in the folder list, holding down “Ctrl” and dragging the icon to the desk top. So far so good, when clicking on the icon on the desktop I get an error “windows needs to know what program to use to open this file”

    Do you have a fix for this?

    Many thanks,
    Lincoln Beck
