Stay on Top of Things with Outlook Flags
Don't play catch-up — let Outlook flags help you keep up.
Flags are colorful reminders for items you need to follow up on, whether tasks, messages, or contacts. Outlook 2007 offers several options for setting flags to complement the way you work.
Flags can give you pop-up reminders and they also appear in the To-Do Bar, where you can easily see what actions you need to take each day.
The demo shows you how to get started using flags and stay on top of your job.
Watch the demo to see how.
