Outlook Tasks Tip - Create a Things to Do Today List
One of the benefits of using Outlook Tasks is the convenience of removing every single "I've gotta do this" from your mind. This frees of mind of clutter, leaving it open to focus on your high value activities. With tasks, you have a things to do list that is really easy to access.
Some of the students in my Outlook Tasks classes do not view this as a benefit. In fact, they feel as if they will end up with an overwhelming list, and lose the convenience of having the paper list at their fingertips.
I have a simple solution - set Task reminders for the items you'd like to have on your "things to do" list for the day.
Decide when you'd like to have your reminders pop up. I have mine set for 7am (the things to do today list) and Noon (for any calls I have to make to my West Coast clients).
Set your reminders. Open up a task. Put a check mark in the reminder box, and enter the date and time you'd like to be reminded.
With this system, your Tasks list becomes a well-organized holding place for all the things you have to do, and your reminders provide you with a convenient "things to do today" list.

Easily Create Training Manuals Based on your Presentation
MS Powerpoint 2003, MS Word 2003
I just received a call from a colleague. She is in the midst of creating a training manual based on her PowerPoint presentation, and she wondered if there's an easy way to transfer the information.
Copying and pasting the information slide by slide was taking all day.
Fortuntately, there is.
On the File menu, click Send to, then Microsoft Word.
When the dialog box pops up, click Outline Only, and then OK.
All of the information in your PowerPoint slides will be transferred into a new Microsoft Word document.
I often use this when creating training manuals for my Software and Internet Marketing Courses. It makes the PowerPoint presentation and training manual in sync, and makes creating manuals a snap.
