Adding Contact Info to Appointments in Microsoft Outlook
Hello,
I am very dissapointed that in Outlook 2007 I can no longet drag a contact over to my calendar to create an appointment. What is Microsoft thinking by de-featuring an upgrade! Now I have to open the contact and got to the Move To menu and chose copy to and the choose calendar. Then I have to close the contact... what a hassle! Am I missing something or did Microsoft blow this? Thanks!

With the RIGHT Mouse button, drag a Contact and drop it on the 'Calendar' Folder. In the option menu that appears, select 'Copy here as Appointment with Text' Does this help? -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "amandaj" wrote in message ... I need to have the address and phone number automatically entered into a field in my appointments, and be seen when I print out the calendar page. Currently I must type everything I want seen on the print out into the subject field or the location field. Is there anyway to click a button somewhere to attach the info and make it visible on the print out without having to go through wasting my time typing everything over and over everytime i set an appointment?

I've been wondering how to do this for a long time, so great info, but I'd
like to know if you can auto populate the address of the contact in the locations field, not in the notes. thanks, Jim "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: Glad you got it working again. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.
