RE: Shortcuts

Hi Heidi

Thank you for your question.

To add a web page to your shortcuts in Outlook:
1. With the web page displayed in Outlook, go to Favorites - Add to Favorites.
2. If you wish to, enter a different name for the favorite
in the Name box
3. Choose which folder you want to store the link in:
To add the link to an existing folder, click the folder, and then click OK.

To add the link to a new folder, click New Folder. In the Folder name box, enter a name for the folder.

RE: Shortcuts

Thanks. Where can I find Favorites because when I don't see it when I open a web page in Outlook? Heidi

RE: Shortcuts

Hi Heidi

It's on the outlook bar (this is for Outlook XP/2002) if you have a different version and cannot find it, please reply with your version so we can assist.

To ensure the outlook bar is shown, go to View -> Outlook bar.

When the outlook bar is first turned on, it usually defaults to the 'outlook shortcuts' section. If you look at the bottom of the outlook bar, you should see two more sections named 'My shortcuts' and 'Other shortcuts'.

Click the 'Other shortcuts' section to display it. Within this section you should now see 'my computer', 'my documents', and 'favourites'.

When you are browsing to a web page in Outlook, you should also see a 'favourites' menu in the menu bar.

Hope this helps you.

Do let us know if you require further information and we'll be happy to help.

Regards, Rich
