If you set the outlook.com data file as default, the outlook.com calendar will be default. I'm not sure if outlook will create birthday events for contacts but if the contacts are in outlook.com, it will create the events in a separate birthday calendar. You can select the startup folder in...

I don't think you can avoid that error - outlook puts a lock on it and another user can't use it until the first is done with it.

I think regex will work to capture the text - a sample is here: http://www.slipstick.com/developer/regex-parse-message-text/#comment-181863 Assign the values to a string - Dim strSubject(2) As String '2 = number of case statements then get each string strSubject(i) = M.SubMatches(1)...

That is a known bug that they are working on. I'll see what I can find out about it.

Well, you are apparently marking them read when you click off. Is the search for unread items? To change the reading pane settings, go to View tab, Reading pane, Options. Not marking items read when you change selection should help.

So he's not using a gmail email address, just using it as a go-between for getting work mail on the phone? In that case, he could forward work mail to outlook.com instead... but that still means an extra data file in outlook - with gsyncit, he can sync the calendar and contacts in the POP3 pst...

It's just a limitation of Advanced Find. If you use Instant Search and the Phone list (or other table view) you can print a table.

Outlook didn't add the spam tag - an antispam addin did. (Assuming AOL didn't.) A macro to fix it is here - http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/email/add-a-file-number-or-keyword-to-the-subject-line-of-messages/ Replace the 3 lines beginning with For each with the following - it runs on all...

Is it your calendar? Was the message from your mailbox or someone else's?

He'll need a different utility. Calendar sync tools are listed at http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync-outlook/using-google-calendar-sync-utility-outlook/ - gsyncit and companionlink are the ones I like, but there are others.

I have no idea why it's not in it - rules were added back in the Outlook 2000 time frame and haven't really changed much since, save for adding more conditions and actions. They haven't edited any existing conditions. I'm not sure if a run a script rule would be efficient but there is at least...

Are the messages completely downloaded? Although that shouldn't cause this error - outlook should go get any missing bodies. It's possible the message is corrupt - can you identify which message it is?

What is the full code? Something in it is telling outlook to use the selection, not the new message.

How many accounts are in your profile? If you have any Exchange account, you can't set the an Outlook.com EAS account's data file as the default. The Exchange account data file needs to be default.

What antivirus do you use? Do you use 2 factor authentication? Is basic auth or or on? (http://www.outlook-tips.net/tips/gmail-outlook-unable-connect-password-prompts/)

If her marking the messages as read is not showing up when you view the account, either categorize or flag with mark complete. Both are equally easy to do - double click to flag complete, or click to set the category assigned to quick click category. Another option is for her to folder the...

Ah, another one of Microsoft's brilliant ideas that they left die. :( It would probably be easiest to use the view control, but most antivirus software will kill the script for security reasons.

change one of the if lines: If TypeOf Item Is Outlook.TaskItem AND instr(1, item.categories, "Complete") = 0 Then or If Task.Status = olTaskComplete AND instr(1, task.categories, "Complete") = 0 Then the first one kicks it out quicker if the task has the category. I'm not sure it really...

The easiest way to get it back is to use system restore to roll back till before you removed it. http://www.slipstick.com/problems/pst-repair/convert-an-exchange-offline-file-ost-to-a-personal-file-pst/ otherwise, you need to use an expensive utility.

I'm using this and getting just one new task - bu, if you are copying it as an identical task, why not just using the regenerate task feature? Private WithEvents Items As Outlook.Items Private Sub Application_Startup() Dim Ns As Outlook.NameSpace Set Ns = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")...
