Mouseless
Calendar Displays
I'm sure that most
users of MS Outlook's calendar feature know that they can quickly choose
to display a day, work week, seven day week or a month with just a click
of the mouse on either the View menu or the appropriate button.
Some of you may know
that you can choose any number of days to display by highlighting them
on the Date Navigator (the small monthly calendars displayed
in the upper right corner).

So, if you know about
all of that, how about if today we cover some key combinations to accomplish
these tasks? Maybe a quick tip for those readers who are looking to be
less mouse dependent?
- To display a month,
try Alt + = (equal sign).
- To display a week,
use Alt + - (minus sign).
- To display between
one and 10 days, combine Alt with the number key that
corresponds to the number of days you want to see. (You have to use
the numbers on the standard keyboard, the numeric keypad will not work).
To see one day, use Alt + 1, for five days use Alt + 5 and ten days
can be displayed with Alt + 0. Well, you get the idea.
All of these key combinations
display a range of dates based on the selected date in the Date Navigator.
So, if you're looking for current and immediate upcoming information,
be sure to have the current date selected in the Date Navigator.
And that's all there
is to it! The calendar display is literally at your fingertips.
