MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / December 2006Notes in Outlook 2003
I am not understanding the Notes feature. Can I make a note with some tidbit of info that I want to be attached to a Contact? When I make a note I see no way to say this goes under John Doe. When I pull up John Doe Contact card & go to Activities there is a "Notes" in the drop down but I dont know how to put a note there for that person only. I just want to put infomation & not a task or activity. If I cant use notes, If I put the info in a task & put John Doe as Contact, it also puts the task under me as "owner" & there is no way to remove my name from owner. Also When I bring up a contact & go to "Activities" it wants to default to "ALL Items" which starts bringing in every email. Can I just default to something else like "Tasks" ? I am trying to use this program as a PIM but not having much luck. Do you know is Outlook 2007 is any more useful for personal use & not sales ? Would appreciate any help in accomplishing what I need to do.  SignatureBarry www.beamalarm.com On the notes file options, there is a place to specify a contact. Click in the upper left hand corner of any note and you will see where you can link to a contact or assign a category, for instance.

I thought I could right click in that area (that large white space) & add a note that would attach to that contact I was on, but it looks like right click is not an option. I tried FILE - NEW - NOTE , but I still have to go thru the steps to tell it to attach to the current contact I am on. I guess I can try using it that way. Thanks for your help.
