Ribbon
In Outlook 2010, the Ribbon will now be displayed and used. This replaces the
Menus from previous versions. The Ribbon is where you will find the commands
for actions in Outlook. They are grouped by association for ease of use.
Navigation Pane
The Calendar Navigation Pane only shows information that is needed and is
used for your Calendar. You can use the Navigation Pane to open Calendars
(for which you have permissions), to share your Calendar, or to send a Snapshot
of your Calendar via e-mail to another user. The Date Navigator will only display
in this pane if the To-Do Bar is closed.
Appointment Area
This area displays your Appointments, Meetings, and Events.
Task Pane
The Task Pane allows you to track your work through the use of Tasks. Any
Task that has been completed will appear marked out. Tasks not yet completed
will be carried over to the next day. This pane only displays in Day and Week
view. If you want to turn this pane off, go to the View tab and select the Daily
Task List button, Off.
To-Do Bar
The To-Do Bar integrates your Tasks, e-mail messages flagged for follow-up,
upcoming Appointments, and Calendar information in one convenient place.
This pane gives you a glance at your priorities for the day. The To-Do Bar
remains the same as in the Outlook Mail view.

To add or remove the To-Do Bar from the view, go to the View tab and then
to the To-Do Bar button (Minimized or Off). From this button you can also
customize the To-Do Bar by removing one of the three components (Date
Navigator, Appointment Section, or Task Input Panel). Simply uncheck the
item from the menu option to remove it from the To-Do List view.
•
To customize the To-Do Bar even further, select Options from the shortcut
menu in the previous bullet.
In the To-Do Bar Options box, you can adjust how many months you will see
in the Date Navigator, how many Appointments/Meetings you will see in the
Appointment Section, and if you do or do not want to view the Task List.
4. You can customize the width of the Navigation Pane or the To-Do bar by resting
the mouse pointer on the split bar to the right of the Navigation Pane or the left of

The Ribbon & Backstage View
The Ribbon replaces the menus and toolbars that we used in previous versions of
Outlook 2010. The Ribbon is divided into several command tabs, such as File, Home
Send/Receive, Folder and View. Each command tab hosts tools and links related to its
name.
By categorizing and grouping the actions that you take when working in Office, it makes
it easier to find the tool that you need. The organization of the Ribbon makes it possible
to find the tool even when you are not sure what it is called. In previous versions of
Office, you needed to menu surf and drill down in dialog boxes, searching for the
appropriate choice.
New in Office 2010, is the File tab also referred to as Backstage view. The new
Backstage view replaces the traditional File menu and provides one space to manage
and customize your Outlook account.

Lesson 3: Sharing your Calendar
Discussion
If you need to allow other people to view, change, update, or add to your Calendar, you
can make someone a Delegate. This will allow another person certain permissions to
your Calendar. You will be responsible for assigning the level of permission for the
Delegate. When you are setting up the Delegate, you are given the choice of what the
person can and cannot do with your Calendar. There is not a limit as to how many
people you share your Calendar with.
For example, you can set a Delegate up to view, create, and edit Appointments,
Meetings, and Events for you and you can still keep your private entries confidential.
There will be three methods for adding Delegates in Outlook Calendar discussed in this
manual.
