Jump to a specific date in the Calendar
I need to check an appointment I had somewhere in March 2013.
How can I quickly go to this specific date or month in my Calendar without needing to scroll through the Calendar or the Date Navigator?

Looking at the folder size of my Calendar, I noticed that it takes up a lot of space. This is very well possible since I often store attachments with my Calendar items or receive Meeting invitations with attachments.
Now I'm looking for a way to locate the largest items and clean up their attachments.
Which method would be most effective?
After reinstalling and updating my computer via Windows Update, I noticed I'm still running Outlook without any updates.
How can I get updates for Office as well?
I'm organizing my emails into various subfolders which have subfolders of their own again. In addition, I'm using rules to automatically move messages to their corresponding folder.
Usually I keep this folder structure collapsed but then I can't see if a message arrived in any of these subfolders. Even these folder trees are expanded, I would have to scroll in order to see them all.
Is there a way to make the parent folder show the combined amount of unread items in any of the subfolders?
I have a couple of old pst-file archives which I don't keep actively connected to Outlook as I don't use them on a daily basis. On occasion I still need to access one of them and I connect it to Outlook via;
If I then want to do a search within the archive, the results are always incomplete as the archive has not been fully indexed yet.
Is there any way I can directly search within the archive directly without needing to wait for it to be indexed?
I've scanned my pst-file with scanpst.exe and it displays the following error;
”Internal errors were found in this file. They must be repaired for this file to work correctly.”
I've chosen repair and I get the “Repair Completed” feedback after running it. But when I check my pst-file for errors directly after that, I still get the same error notice.
How can I completely fix my pst-file?
Is it possible to suspend the reception of emails while staying on-line?
Working off-line isn't an option for me as I still need access to non-cached on-line data like Public Folders and shared folders.
We've set the Windows sound scheme to "No Sounds" as we are not to have any default sounds going off all day (I share the room with 5 other people). But now every time an email arrives, the computer still makes a beeping sound which is even more annoying.
We cannot turn off the sound completely either as for some things we are still allowed to have sound alerts (in fact, it is required).
How can we get rid of the beep?
I have repeatedly closed a couple of toolbars in Outlook. Nonetheless, each time I open Outlook they reappear.
What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?
