I've been using Outlook 2010 for about 6 months. It's great. It builds on previous versions and has lots of wonderful features that make it easy to use and extremely practical for business.
Imagine my surprise when I noticed a feature I had completely overlooked that is incredibly useful not just for geeks like me, but also for end users.
Sometimes when a problem occurs on a PC, it's handy if you can grab a snapshot of the screen and email it to your IT Support Person. Prior to Outlook 2010, this normally involved using the PrtScn Button to grab the entire desktop - or making use of a specific screen capture tool. But not any more!
If you have Outlook 2010, give this a go:
- Create a New Email
- Type Your Email Text
- Click the Insert Tab
- Find "Screenshot" under the Illustrations section
It will then offer to automagically snip any of the existing windows OR you can select screen clipping which allows you to draw a boundary around a specific part of the screen you want to copy.
It's fantastic!
