You can organize a cluttered schedule by creating separate calendars, view shared calendars, or share your calendar with someone else.
Do any of the following:
Track two or more separate schedules in your own calendar
Keep your work and personal events separate by using two separate calendars in Outlook. Each calendar operates independently, but you can show the events from both calendars simultaneously.
Important: If you create a new calendar under your Exchange calendar, the new calendar will also sync with the Exchange server. However, if you create a meeting on the new Exchange calendar, responses to this meeting aren't counted.
-
At the bottom of the navigation pane, click Calendar
-
In the navigation pane , select the calendar under which the new calendar will be saved.
If you don't see the calendar you want, expand or collapse the categories list.
-
On the Organize tab, click New Calendar.
-
In the navigation pane, type a name for the new calendar.
Tips:
-
Drag events between calendars to move them from one schedule to another.
-
New events you create are saved in the calendar currently selected in the navigation pane.
-
To see or hide a calendar, simply select or clear the check box next to the calendar name.
-
To delete a calendar you create, click the calendar in the navigation pane, and then on the Edit menu, click Delete.

Note: When you delegate or share an address book, calendar, or mail folder, delegates or users who share those folders could view your private contacts, events, or e-mail messages by using other software applications. To help protect your privacy, put private items in a separate, non-shared address book, calendar, or mail folder.
