Link a Contact to an Appointment

Before Outlook 2007, I could open a contact, make an appointment on the calender and when I opened that appointment, there would be a link to the contact at the bottom and a Contacts button.

I can’t seem to do that now anymore. How can I get this option back?

That has now been turned into an option which is disabled by default.

To enable;

  • Outlook 2007
    Tools-> Options…-> button Contact Options…-> select: Show Contact Linking on all Forms
  • Outlook 2010
    File-> Options-> section Contacts-> select: Show contacts linked to the current item

Contact Linking in Outlook 2010
After enabling contact linking…

Contact Linking field in an Appointment/Meeting form
…the Appointment/Meeting form will hold a Contacts button and field.
