Most useful Keyboard Shortcuts for Microsoft Outlook 2007?
By Amarendra Bhushan for CEOWORLD Magazine Updated:April 2, 2009
A keyboard shortcut is a keystroke that you can use to execute a command in a computer program more quickly. Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, as in previous versions, comes with its own set of keyboard shortcuts in addition to the standard Windows shortcuts.
Or a keyboard shortcut is a keystroke or a combination of two or more keystrokes that you can use to execute a command in a computer program more quickly than you could by clicking with a mouse.
I use keyboard shortcuts to save time and avoid using the awkward mouse on my laptop. Here are my favorites in Outlook 2007:
