I have only had this book for a short time but I have found it very useful. I have used Oulook in the past but this new version is much different and this guide is a big help. So far I have found the things I was looking for but the names have changed and that makes finding specific items more difficult. You may have to do some digging to locate that item you want to modify or change.

It is very well organized, easy to read, and will help if you are new to Outlook. I would reccomend this book.

I am a user of Outlook 2000/2003/2007 and this book has MANY short falls. The examples to follow sometimes don't start at the beginning of the process. Examples should start at the beginning: File, New, Folder... In this book some examples start with New, Folder, missing the File command (this is just an example, not one that is actually wrong with the book). In some examples he misses the first 2 steps of a process!!!!!!!
Please look around, this book is not worth the price if you have any experience or want detailed reading of how to do a specific task. Hope this saves you some money and time.

I bought this book for a class, but then never took the class. It was easy enough to work through the book. I liked the breakdown of chapters that are listed in the inside of the front cover. It helped me know immediately to go to a certain chapter for help with a specific problem. Plus there is a chapter on tweaking the way Outlook displays and prints, and another one on flagging, tagging, color coding and archiving that was really helpful to me.
I would have liked more visuals/illustrations as I am a visual learner, but it was pretty easy to use even without as many as I like.

I got this book because I was supposed to but all this was not new to me. For a beginning user this book is great!
