Dashboard on Outlook

I would like my users to have the ability to see their SF Dashboard on their Outlook. I'd like them to be able to see their SF Dashboard on outlook without opening a new window for SF & it shold be synchronized all the time...
Thanks!

Scott_Jorgensen May 27	When you use Outlook Connect (formerly "Outlook Edition") you can turn on folders in Outlook that correspond to salesforce.com tabs. One of them is the Dashboards tab. Have you tried that?
yp Jun 3	Hi Scott, I know that some of the ERP systems are able to show their Dashboards on Outlook. The ERP system adminidtator created for them a button on Outlook, and whey they click on it they can see their ERP Applications on the same window of Outlook. What do you mean by "turn on folders in Outlook that correspond to SF"? How can I do it on Outlook? Thank you for your assitance.
paul_underbrink Jun 26	The folders used to be turned on by default. In the latest versions, they are off by default. Here's how you turn them on: 1. In Outlook, go to Tools, Salesforce Options, and then select the e-mail tab. 2.In the Browser Options section check the "Add salesforce.com folders in Outlook" checkbox. 3. Close Outlook, then relaunch the application. There are folders corresponding to tabs, including dashboards, grouped under the salesforce.com folder.
