How to Move an Appointment in Outlook

When your dentist appointment is rescheduled, you can record the change in Outlook 97, 98 or 2000 with one hand, while holding the telephone in your other hand.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Computers
• Microsoft Outlook

1. Click on the Calendar icon in the far left pane of the Outlook window.

2. Click on the date of the appointment (unless your calendar is already open to that date).

3. Click on the bar to the left of the appointment to turn your cursor into a four-way arrow.

4. Drag the appointment to another time frame, another date, or both.

5. Double-click on the appointment to make changes or add information.

Tips & Warnings

• Moving one appointment in a series of recurring appointments will change the date or time for only that specific appointment. To change the recurrence pattern, open the appointment, then click on the Recurrence button.
• To set start or end times that do not coincide with a half hour, you'll need to open the appointment window.
