Searching For Appointments

[Guest]

Outlook should allow the user to search upcoming appointments without needing
the user to know the date of the scheduled appointment. The appointment
subject should be enough for Outlook to find it. Part of the point of
creating a calendar is so the user can forget when an appointment is after
entering the data. Why can't Outlook just create a list of upcoming
appointments showing only the date/time and subject headings?

Outlook should allow the user to search upcoming appointments without
needing the user to know the date of the scheduled appointment.

And it does already. For example, I have an appointment with my daughter's
name in the subject. So, in the "Look for" field on the Find toolbar, I
entered her name, then clicked Find Now. Low and behold, Outlook showed me
that appointment and her birthday event that was added when I added her name
as a contact. Seems to be exactly what you want to me. Does it differ from
what you're requesting?
