Thanks for reading this post.

I want to at times append some of my emails to the calendar and at a glance
view the dates to which emails had been appended. Is this possible?
 
Yes. But I don't think you'll like the answer. Tell me what you want to
achieve - maybe there's a better way.

Open the appointment. Insert Item and insert the email.

View the Calendar in By category view and show the Attchment column/field.
There you go now you can see at a glance which meetings have an attachment.
But it's a table stye of view.
 
Thanks Judy for responding to my post.

Grate, it worked.

I also discovered that I could drag and drop emails (retaining the mails in
the original folder) to the calendar shortcut in the left bottom corner. This
will open the appointments window on which the date could be set and saved.
This method allows me to see the dates to which emails were attached in any
of the views.

By the way I am using outlook 2003

Sincerely hope this info would be beneficial to you.

Regards

question still stands...

tell me what yopu are trying to achieve. Maybe there are better ways.

Thanks for your post Judy,

Yes, I was able to achieve what I wanted.

In fact there were times when I received emails that needed some action on a
specific later date. Therefore, I was thinking of a way to appened these
mails to those specific dates so that I can view them in the calendar at a
glance.( I preferred this method rather than FOLLOWUP).
 
Emails for action on a specific date could be made into Tasks and then they
can appear on the Start Date on the TaskPad.

Lots of posts here where I describe how to make that happen.

That's a wonderful piece of information. So now I have a couple of different
