Integrating Your Content with Outlook 2000

The first obvious question is, how do we get the dashboard into Outlook? A dashboard is nothing more than an Outlook 2000 folder with a default associated Web page. This type of folder is called a Folder Home Page. To illustrate this, let's add a folder home page for Microsoft Developers Network, following these steps:

1.	Start Outlook 2000.
2.	Select Outlook Today.
3.	Select File, Folder, New Folder.
4.	Give the folder a name of MSDN.
5.	When your new folder shows up on your folder view, right-click the MSDN folder and select Properties.

7.	Choose to show the home page by default for this folder.
