Installing the Microsoft Outlook Plug-In

To schedule Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express meetings from Microsoft Outlook, the Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace Express for Microsoft Outlook plug-in must be installed on your computer and the
MeetingPlace tab must appear when you create a new meeting request in Microsoft Outlook. You use
this tab to access the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express scheduling form.

Your system administrator may have already installed the Microsoft Outlook plug-in on your system. To
see if the Microsoft Outlook plug-in is installed, open Microsoft Outlook and create a meeting request.
If you do not see the MeetingPlace tab, your system is not configured to schedule Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace Express meetings from Microsoft Outlook.

Depending on your settings, you may be able to download the Microsoft Outlook plug-in yourself. See
