    How will a new Exchange profile handle existing .ost file stored elsewhere?

    For some reason (long story) I am considering to create a new Outlook profile. I have never done this before, so I would like to be certain about a few things. 1) I am not sure about the effects, specifically with regards to using existing .ost files. Used the registry patch "ForceOSTPath.reg"...

    Anyone here using a 3rd party tool (add-in, or stand alone) that actually mirrors Outlook (Exchange) to Google? Mirror means exact copy in Google Calendar. Doesn't need to be entirely free, a small price is okay. Currently using Outlook4Gmail, but it creates duplicates (when an event has...

    VBA - Regex - remove double line spacing

    Sometimes, whilst drafting a reply, I see the previous mails with extra empty lines added. Within a 'simple' text editor this would easily be solved by using a regex. Find: (\s+?\r\n){2} Repl: \r\n (Note: in most cases there are leading spaces before the CRLF, reason why the \s+? is added...

    Replace hard returns with soft returns on selected text and button to QAT

    Spent quite some time on searching for an Outlook add-in that automatically replaced hard returns with soft ones. AFAIK there are none, which is astonishing considering this problem probably exists already since Outlook was introduced. There are some 3rd party workarounds, like...

    Outlook - How to embed font ? (If at all possible)

    Always wondered, but never dared to ask: I believe(!) that to some extend it may be possible to embed fonts into Word or Powerpoint. Not sure though if at all it is possible to do so in Outlook.

    If, for a longer period of time, there are no replies on a forum thread, or, the solution has been found already, the post is of no use and should be deleted. AFAIK users can not delete their post themselves. How to proceed then? Thanks.

    I'd like to use Query Builder to filter on multiple words in 'description'. It seems there is no such fieldname matching 'description', or 'body', or 'info', or 'remarks'... What field am I supposed to use there? Or maybe it is not possible to filter on that field? Thanks
