Creating New Folders
When creating new folders using Outlook 2003, the messages are Grouped. Is
it possible to disable the "Group By" default setting when creating new folders? Thanks, CM |

Creating New Folders
That's not actually the most consistent aspect of 2003. I think the grouping
of the new folder (when you make a Tasks one) is the same as your primary Tasks one. Not always so when you make an email folder. So if you want to make a lot of new folders, Un Group the default folder (in the mailbox) and try then.

Creating New Folders
Thanks Judy for replying.
I already tried your method before I wrote this post with no success. That is I created an email folder Work1, and when I moved email messages to it all messages were Grouped, the new folder was set with the Group By checked. I Unchecked the Group By and the email messages were un-grouped, which is what I wanted. After I ungrouped "Work1" I created a new folder and named it "Work2", the path looks like this: Outlook Today Work1 Work2 The new folder "Work2" was also Grouped, my emails messages all were grouped. I had to manually ungroup it, again. There are no options when creating new folders to set any desired settings, just name the Folder and the Type and thats it. There's got to be an option somewhere when creating new folders to have the folders set not to be Grouped. CM "Judy Gleeson MVP Outlook" wrote in message ...

Creating New Folders
As I said, it's not always so with email folders - I haven't worked out the
irregular pattern (?) for new email folders. Turn on the Advanced toolbars and leanbr to use the Group By box as you'll get greater functionality than the Show in Groups setting in the Arrange by thingamy.
