Question List view in calendar.


Help! In Microsoft Outlook. Inside of the window, when you click on the calendar and create a new Event. What is the name of that area where you can just type anything?

The reason I'm asking is that I want to view the calendar in "List" view. I want to see what I typed in that area in "list" view. I thought that area was called "comments". But when I put a "comments" column in to the "list" view, nothing shows up. Ugh.

I'm not completely sure what aspect of calendars you are looking for. Try setting the view preview?

You will need to provide more details so we can locate the proper functions.

All I'm asking is, what is the name of the column I need to put in to the calendar List View to see what I typed into the "comments" area of the the new event window?

Obviously it is not a "comments" column, because nothing shows up there when I did that. Or even a "comment" column.

Thanks.

Ok, if you are viewing your calendar in list view, simply right click the Columns bar and choose "View Settings". You can also select View then View Settings from the ribbon.

Within the Advanced View Settings List, Select Columns. To add comments to the columns bar you will need to select the drop down and select available columns from "all Documents Fields". Comments will be in this list.

Hope this helps.

Thumbs up Solved.

Thanks for the input everyone. But my girlfriend found the answer.

Spider Tech, you were mostly right. Good instructions, thanks. But, the field where you can type anything is NOT call "comments", it's called "message".

Once she created the column in the list view called message, everything I typed in that open area in the create events window showed up perfectly.

Understood. There are so many options to choose from when customizing views. Glad this thread was helpful enough to locate the proper option you needed.

Best Regards,
