Outlook is more than just an email programme. Not only can you use it to send emails, but you can also create and effectively manage events and meetings in the calendar, amongst other things. When you are invited to a meeting, it appears in the calendar and you can quickly let the organiser know whether you will be attending. Outlook offers a number of useful settings that allow you to customise the calendar interface so that you can get a quick overview.

You also have the option to create additional calendars alongside your standard calendar, or to add shared calendars from other people. Calendars can be grouped together into calendar groups. You can also access group calendars or share your own calendars with others.
