Making a “Note”

It may sometimes be necessary to write something that does not come under the category of either a Calendar or a task.

To do this, we use the “Notes” option in Outlook.  To create a new “Note”, click the “New Note” button, or if the “Notes” are not displayed in the navigation pane, click on the “New Items” button, select “More Items” and you select the “Note” option from the drop-down menu.

 

Whichever method you follow, a new “Note” opens where you can enter any text.

When you click on the icon in the upper left corner of the “Note”, a menu opens.

When you click the X icon in the upper right corner it shows that the “Note” is concluded.

To view all “Notes”, click the “Note” button in the navigation pane.

 

Preparation of “Notes”:

If you want to change the settings of your “Notes”, click on the “File” button in the menu bar, and this takes us into the background view.
Click “Options” and select “Notes and Journal.”
In the upper part of the dialog box, you can change the different settings for the “Notes”.
If you want the date and time to be displayed below each “Note”,select the “Show date and time that the “Note” was last modified” check box.

 

Sorting “Notes”:

We can automatically sort our various “Notes”

Just click the “View” button in the menu bar, select “View Settings” and click on the “Sort” button in the window that appears.

 

You can sort your “Notes” by date, category, subject, etc.
You have to use all these options carefully.
