Displaying Two Time Zones in Outlook

Recently, I have needed to schedule meetings in Outlook with colleagues in the UK.  Albeit a simple 6 hour time difference, I am a bit time-math challenged and prefer a visual representation of the time difference when scheduling meetings.  Microsoft Outlook has a feature for this.

To display 2 time zones on your Outlook calendar, follow these steps.

1. In Outlook, select your Calendar.  Next, right click the on the bar that represents the hour and select Change Time Zone.

2. Check the box to Show an Additional Time Zone, give it a Label (name) and select the Time Zone.

That's it!  Now, you will see 2 time zones when you view your Outlook calendar.
