Keyboard shortcuts: Outlook 2007

Keyboard shortcuts on Outlook 2007:

     Keyboard shortcuts are typically an alternate means for invoking one or more commands that would otherwise be accessible only through a menu, a pointing device, different levels of a user interface, or via a command console. Keyboard shortcuts generally expedite common operations by reducing input sequences to a few keystrokes, hence the term "shortcut".

CTRL+1: Switch to Mail.    

CTRL+2: Switch to Calendar.     

CTRL+3: Switch to Contacts.

CTRL+6: Switch to Folder List in Navigation Pane.   
 
CTRL+7: Switch to Shortcuts. 

CTRL+PERIOD: Switch to next message (with message open).    

CTRL+COMMA: Switch to previous message (with message open).    

F6 or CTRL+SHFT+TAB: Move between the Navigation Pane, the main Outlook window, the Reading Pane, and the To-Do Bar.     

TAB: Move between the Outlook window, the smaller panes in the Navigation Pane, the Reading Pane, and the sections in the To-Do Bar.    

Arrow keys: Move around within the Navigation Pane.    

CTRL+Y: Go to a different folder.    

F3 or CTRL+E: Go to the Search box.

ALT+UP ARROW or CTRL+COMMA or ALT+PAGE UP:
In the Reading Pane, go to the previous message.
