Outlook smarter than you think

Sometimes the software from Microsoft is smarter than you might think. It's
just a matter of finding out how to use that hidden intelligence.

Just take the Calendar feature in Outlook. When we are creating a new
appointment we can enter the date and the start and end times by typing
values in the appropriate boxes or by selecting them from a drop-down list.
But look what happens if you enter the text "christmas" in a date field and
the text "noon" in a time field. Indeed it is neatly converted to
25/12/2001 12:00. Even the text "christmas next year" is understood and
converted to 25/12/2002.

Very useful but I never make business appointments on Christmas Day you may
comment. Well there are a lot more of these "vague" date indications that
Outlook can understand like "tomorrow" "next Friday" "Friday next week" "2
weeks from today" and others. Look in the Outlook online Help under Using
Calendar -> What you can type in date and time fields to see what your
options are.

Even smarter: type the text "every Tuesday" in a date field and Outlook will
automatically create a weekly Recurring appointment on Tuesday. So no need
to configure this separately with the [Recurrence] button anymore!
