Sharing Notes

When you want to send information that is recorded in an electronic note to someone in an e-mail message, you can forward the note instead of retyping or copying the information into the message.

In this exercise, you will forward a note, open the received note, and save a copy with another name.

USE the SBS Office Online note you created in "Recording Information by Using Notes" earlier in this chapter. If you did not complete that exercise, you may do so now, or you can use any notes of your own.

BE SURE TO display the Notes pane before beginning this exercise.

1. Right-click the SBS Office Online note, and then click Forward.

   Outlook opens a message window with the note title as the message subject and the note itself as an attachment. The URL in the Subject box appears as a hyperlink.

2. In the To box, type your own e-mail address.

   

3. In the message header, click the Send button.

   Outlook sends the message.

4. Display your Inbox, and click the URL in the SBS Office Online message header.

   The Microsoft Office Online Web site opens in your default Internet browser.

5. Return to your Outlook Inbox. In the Reading Pane, right-click the attached note, and then click Open.

   The SBS Office Online note opens.

6. Select Office Online, type Web Link, and then close the note.

7. In your Inbox, click another message, and then click this one again to see the change.

8. Drag the SBS Web Link note from the Reading Pane to the Notes button at the bottom of the Navigation Pane. Then display the Notes pane.

   The SBS Office Online and SBS Web Link notes both appear in the notes list.

CLOSE the Internet browser window.
