Outlook Folders Order not alphabetised
Recently been given a new laptop at work, and machine has
been reimaged with our Corp standard image of Win 2K with Office XP, so I have Outllok XP installed. What has really thrown me though is that my folders are no longer in alphabetical order, so under my folder list I have the following:- + Personal Folders + Public Folders - Outlook Today Calendar Contacts Deleted Items Drafts Inbox etc As you can see it is not even as if they are reversed, because Pe comes before Pu, but P does not come before O. This bugs me because I like to have my Outllok Today at the top of the folder list and then scroll down for what I need in the Personal folders. Any ideas on how I reset this order? Regards Ken........... |

Outlook Folders Order not alphabetised
Hi Roady, many thanks for that - I guess I'll leave that to the IT folks at work
as I'm likely to blow away all the proper settings if I try this from home, but at least I know it's not something stupid that I've done, so I can ding them for it and have them do the work. Unless of course there is an easy way to import settings from another profile, and I could then check the new one before blowing away the old? -- Regards Ken.......................

No, it's something you want to do at the Office. Especially if you use an
ost-file (cache your messages to the harddisk) -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] www.howto-outlook.com Tips of the month: -Creating Signatures -Create an Office XP CD slipstreamed with Service Pack 3 ----- "Ken Wright" wrote in message ...
