    adding comment to top of forwarded email

    OL13. I often want to add a comment to a forwarded email but have run into a problem with some email that has a background color. this color then takes up all of the forwarded email, forcing me to write on top of the color. Is there any way to add blank, white, unformatted, space to the...

    How do you manage "mini-projects?"

    after dealing yet again with Outlook tasklists rearranging, not listing correctly, etc. I set out to find another task/todolist program. currently I am using ToDoList, an open source, free program. It has an incredible number of setup options. Better than any of the paid programs I have...

    OL13 Calendar, won't allow entering 2 appointments consecutively

    yes. that is correct, providing one gets the double click at the right pace. though a single click also selects and opens an appointment to 'type in place'. another single click should be able to do the same, to enable 'type in place', on another selection. not appear blank, then show only...

    OL13 Calendar, won't allow entering 2 appointments consecutively

    OL13 I didn't see the problem previously, in OL10. I mentioned the double click speed because if just double clicking all the time was the solution, I might be able to learn that. but having to double click, at different speeds depending on if it is a first or second entry becomes...

    OL13 Calendar, won't allow entering 2 appointments consecutively

    I have noticed this problem since first using O13. I enter an appointment on the calendar. then click on another time and start to enter text. Nothing appears in the entry box. When I click away from it, only the fist letter of what I typed is there. The rest went nowhere. If I double click...

    Creating custom contact forms

    I have seen the same thing. Any contact using the old custom form, after applying the hotfix, has tiny font in the first field (name). and it is unchangeable. Will we know if this is being fixed in an update, or, will have to download a new hotfix? assuming it is fixed at all. seems like...

    email folders appear empty, at first click

    there a number of pop3 accounts, but I doubt that it has anything to do with the issue. some of the folders contain email that is dragged to them after reading. I tried scanpst, it claims to have found and repaired an error, so time will tell if problem reappears. and yes, I am reluctant...

    email folders appear empty, at first click

    this has been happening for several months, OL13. I click on email Inbox, or a sub folder, and it appears empty, no email shown. I have to click on another folder and then back to that folder, to get the email to appear. doesn't happen every time. but occasionally. anyone else experience...

    How do you manage "mini-projects?"

    One option that I use is to list the various steps (eg: people to contact) in the notes section of a task. I can check them off as they are completed. and add subtasks below them. Notes field can be seen on tasks list, so depending on size of screen and notes column width, you may see all...

    lock task views?

    perhaps to save your time, and eliminate errors on my part, here is the vba code that I ran: -------------------------- Sub LocksPublicViews() 'Locks the interface of all views that are available to 'all users of this folder. Dim objName As Outlook.NameSpace Dim objViews As Outlook.Views Dim...

    lock task views?

    I changed "inbox" to "tasks, as indicated above, changed "olViewSaveOptionThisFolderEveryone" to "olViewSaveOptionThisFolderOnlyMe", lowered macro security settings and ran macro. then iI hit a column heading to re-order the tasks. this meant that I could no longer move tasks around into...

    lock task views?

    its a task view. i have a number of different task lists under "my tasks". (perhaps i am organizing tasks incorrectly?). at the moment i am focusing on a particular task list. it isn't clear to me if 'my tasks' is the folder, or each of the lists is also a folder. iac, i will try...

    lock task views?

    Diane, thanks for taking the time to write the code. I made a copy of the view that I am most concerned with, setting 'can be used on ' as "this folder, private". so that the macro would only affect that view. then i changed "olViewSaveOptionThisFolderEveryone" to...

    lock task views?

    too often do I accidentally click the "subject" heading, causing tasks to rearrange in alphabetical order. Then, to retrieve my preferred settings for this custom view I have to click through all the view modification settings to set order back to "none". frustrating and a waste time. Is...
