Display an Additional Time Zone• Two separate time zones can be displayed in the Calendar. The two time

zones can be, for example, your local time zone and the time zone of a city that you often travel to. The second time zone is used only to show a second time bar in Calendar view, and does not affect the way in which Calendar items are stored or displayed.

• Click the File tab.

• Click Options.

• On the Calendar tab, under Time Zones, select the Show a second time zone check box.

• In the Label box, type a name for the additional time zone.

• In the Time zone list, click the time zone that you want to add.

• If you want your computer clock to automatically adjust for daylight saving time (DST) changes, select the Adjust for daylight saving time check box. This option is available only in time zones that use daylight saving time (DST).

Set Workdays and Time• To change your work days and times in Outlook 2010, do the following:

• Open Outlook Calendar and click the File tab.

• Click Options.

• Click Calendar.

• Under Work time, do one or more of the following:

• To change your work hours, in the Start time and End time lists, click the start time and end time of your work day. This is primarily used for your free/busy time availability for meeting requests from other people.

• To change the first day of the week, in the First day of the week list, click a day.
