Hello, I need some help. I've read everything I can, and still can't figure this out...
For years, I used outlook to keep track of thousands of customers and make appointments with them in outlook (2003 version). Now...I have bought 2007 Outlook. For the life if me, I can not figure out how to "schedule appointment with contact".
What I have always done is:
1. Open my contacts, and choose the contact I want.
2. "Schedule appointment with contact" and create it.
3. Then, when that appointment shows up on my calendar, I open it...and it will let me click on the contact that it was made for.

Not it 2007 though. Such a pain, it seems simple. I'm confused, seems like this would be a feature others besides me use, right?
Same deal with tasks for contacts, but if I can figure out the appointments; that's a start.
Thanks for reading! Mike

Hi mikesc2000 - Welcome to PCHF!

You can create a new task for a contact by right clicking the contact and selecting New Task. Unfortunately for appointments this is not possible. You need to add the appointment in and then add the contact manually to the contacts section down the bottom. I don't know why was changed in Outlook 2007

Thanks so much for clearing that up. I dont think that will work for me, sounds like a pain. I guess maybe I will stick with the old version. It has work fine for years. There is no way around it, right?

Not as far I could tell. It is a pain to have to add the the contact to appointments manually.
