If you like the Categories feature within Outlook, then chances are you’ll like the ability to assign a color to your calendar appointments. Did you know Outlook can automatically turn an appointment a specific color based on the words you used?
But I must give a quick warning. Because I know there are some of you out there who would love to create a calendar that looks like a mosaic tile! Don’t go overboard with this color-coding option!!! I suggest you use up to 4 or 5 colors to show at-a-glance how your time is going to be spent on any given day.
It’s easy to set up and you’ll wonder how you lived without this handy feature.
