Automatically launch a Web page at a specified time from Outlook

You can also view an animated version of this procedure, Animation: Launch a Web page at a specified time from Outlook.

With Outlook 2000, you can easily reach your favorite sites on the World Wide Web. If you check certain Web sites at specific times of the day - for example, your favorite stock page after the market closes, or a local traffic conditions site before you leave the office — use Netshow Services, which is integrated with Outlook, to automatically open a Web site at a specified time.

1. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Appointment.
2. On the toolbar, click Recurrence, and in the Start list, click the time at which you want the Web site to open.
3. Under Recurrence pattern, select the options that you want.
4. In the Appointment item, select the This is an online meeting using check box, and then in the list click NetShow Services.
5. In the Event address box, enter the URL for the Web site you want to open, and then select the Automatically start Netshow with reminder check box.
6. Select the Reminder check box, and in the list select 0 minutes.

The Web site will automatically appear with a reminder at the time you set in the Appointment Recurrence. I hope that you get Outlook Support from this info and launch a web page at a specified time from Outlook.
