Making an appointment

Ages ago, when working in an office, I used to make appointments on the pc.
Where do I find this in XP?

Install whatever program you used in the office.

XP per se doesn't do this; you must have been using a separate program
installed on to your PC in the old office.

There are many programs, free and paid-for, that you can obtain to do this;
have a search on the Web with Google.

Years ago, when I worked, we had the IOS (Integrated Office System)
which was renamed the IIS (Integrated Information System).

Our computers (if we were lucky enough to have a "real" computer -
most of us had "terminals") were actally used as "terminals" on the
main-frame computers in Don Mills and Dorval (which were
inter-connected).

We could do all kinds of things that I only dream of now: Retrieve
emails from the recipients' mail box (as long as it was not read);
enter scheduled events which automatically would be entered in the
schedules of selected persons (great to set up meetings); enter a
brief messsage (a "shout") which would appear immediately on the
recipient(s)' command line, if they were in fact on-line; check
whether a certain co-worker (boss or subordinate - doesn't matter) was
on-line at that time, etc.

I guess this is all possible when you're all connected to the same
machine.

However, AFAIK, the Internet isn't that way (yet?).
