Show two time zones in your Outlook calendar

When you work with people in another time zone, it's a good thing to keep track of what time it is there. But, it's easy to forget how many hours ahead or behind they are. A simple way to keep track of this is by adding a second time zone to your Outlook calendar. To do this, first display your Calendar in either Day or Work Week view so you can see the time bar that displays the hours in your calendar. Then, right-click above the time bar and choose Change Time Zone from the shortcut menu. Alternately, you can choose Tools | Options from the menu bar, click the Calendar Options button, and then click the Time Zone button.

In the Time Zone dialog box, select the Show An Additional Time Zone check box and select a time zone from the Time Zone dropdown list. In the Label text box, type the name of the area to remind you which time zone you're looking at. At this point, you may also want to add a label to the original time zone in the Current Time Zone panel. Then, click OK until you're back to the calendar. Now you'll see the second time zone next to the current time zone.

 

Stop users from copying the text in your Accešš fields (2000/2002/2003/2007)

As you know, you can set a form fiëld's Locked property to Yes to prevent users from changing the underlying data. However, users are still able to select and copy data from the fiëld, and you may not always want this to be the case. The solution is to also set the fiëld's Enabled property to No. Ordinarily, setting the Enabled property this way causes the fiëld and its associated label to be difficult to read. However, when you set the Enabled property to No and the Locked property to Yes, the fields and labels look exactly as they do when they're enabled for normal entry. The difference is that users will be unable to select or copy any of the displayed data.
