From Outlook's F1 Help:
Make an appointment or meeting private
1.. Create or open the appointment or meeting that you want to make
private.
2.. Select the Private check box in the lower right corner.
Important You should not rely on the Private feature to prevent all
access by other people to the details of an appointment, contact, or task.
To make sure that other people cannot read the item you marked as private,
do not grant them Read permission to your Calendar, Contacts, or Tasks
folder. A person who is granted Read permission to access your folders could
use programmatic methods or other e-mail applications to view details in a
private item. Use the Private feature only when you share folders with
people you trust.
