With your Inbox displayed, right-click on Calendar and choose "Open in new window". Then tile them they way you'd like. If you close the Inbox window prior to the Calendar window, Outlook will remember and open them both the next time you start it. -- Brian Tillman     Was this post helpful to you?         Reply |   Top           Kevin 3/9/2005 9:28 AM PST   I just tried that but it did not work, Office 2003 on XP, it just opened the inbox. :o( "Brian Tillman" wrote: > Barley <Barley@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: > > > Is there a way to and if so how do I view my Outlook calendar and > > Inbox at the same time (without the need to switch views/screens)? > > Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated. > > With your Inbox displayed, right-click on Calendar and choose "Open in new > window".
