Family Diary Outlook 2010 Add-in for Windows

Family Diary is a suit of applications to allow you to set up a database of appointments and contacts for family and friends. Currently the suit consists of the Windows Service, a Windows client application, an Outlook Add-in, a Windows Phone 7 application and a Windows Home Server Add-in.

The Outlook Add-in allows you to import and export appointments and contacts to and from Family Diary. Before you can carry out these operations you will need to connect to the server, each time Outlook is run you need to connect to the server. The Family Diary functions are only displayed when Outlook is in either the Calendar or Contacts pages. You first need to set up the server and connect to it using the Settings button. Once the server is set up you can set it to connect automatically when you run Outlook, however, this may slow down access to Outlook depending on the speed of your network and server. If this becomes an issue you can switch this off and connect only when you want to interface to Family Diary.
