Haven't used Thunderbird for ages. However, in Outlook you can set the Categories very easily by choosing Control + Function key shortcuts. There are 25 different colours available but they will only show as small coloured rectangles on the emails. I don't think there is a way to colour the...
Diane, I actually had a problem getting your macro to work but then had an idea for another solution to my problem. I noticed that you can set a shortcut for each category so set Ctrl+F2 for Blue. Then I created a simple macro using SendKeys as follows:
Sub Blue_Category_Toggle()...
I've been trying to find or write a macro which will mark a selected email, or group of emails, with a category - say the blue category. So far my efforts have failed. If it had the facility to toggle the category on and off, that would be a bonus but is not essential.
I wonder if anyone can...
All the settings came back part way during the day! The view I'm talking about is called InboxVD, which started as a copy of Compact (which I assume is the default view you've referred to). I've now made a copy of InboxVD.
Diane, I know you've written about locking views but will that prevent...
Recently I've made a few changes to my view settings (I use several views in Outlook for different purposes) - mainly adding a few extra conditional formatting options (which I find very helpful for prioritising emails).
Everything was fine for a day or two then, suddenly some (but not all) of...
Thanks Diane. I've actually tried this macro which seems to work ok except that it shows 0 for the flagged message count so I must have made some mistake in the coding. Any ideas please? Thanks.
Sub How_Many_Flagged_Messages()
Dim objOutlook As Object
Dim objnSpace As Object
Dim objFolder As...
I would like to be able to count flagged messages in my Inbox. Does anyone know a macro that will do this please? Or perhaps another method of achieving the same result...? Thanks.
I've found a solution to my problem. Still can't find the appropriate QAT commands - even though I suspect they must be hidden in the huge list somewhere (perhaps under other names?).
However, I hadn't realised that up arrow and down arrow do exactly what I want. So using the SendKeys {UP} and...
On the Outlook 2021 Home screen, I would to change the formatting of the title blocks (if that's the correct term) so as to make unread emails easier to spot. At present they just have a blue line on the left hand side and the title is in a bold blue font. I would like to give the whole block...
Using Outlook 2021, I would like to add 'Previous Item' and 'Next Item' to the Quick Access Toolbar (or even, at worst, the Simplified Ribbon) on the main Outlook Home screen - to enable one to quickly move up or down a list of emails. I have searched all the QAT commands but can't find these...
Thanks for your post but I fear colourful PowerPoint Templates, no matter how good they are, will not help to solve this issue with the appearance of Outlook 2021.
Hi Diane
Don't suppose you ever found that addin by any chance? I've just started using Outlook 2021 and am finding it dreadfully pale and grey. Obviously I can use conditional formatting to brighten up and clarify the email headers but, as Sid said, it would be great to be able to colour code...
I know there are a number of us still happily using Outlook 2003 on Windows 10. I just wondered if anyone had tried using it on Windows 11 yet and, if so, with what result?
Michael
Many thanks for that. I couldn't find CurrentView or the help sample you referred to but, in the meantime, found this www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28648029/Outlook-Macro-to-Change-Views.html which does exactly what I wanted. (I see it includes CurrentView, so it must be there I...
Hi
I wonder if anyone can help me with an Outlook macro please (I'm using Outlook 2003 by the way)?
I have a view called Flagged Messages which is defined to filter my Inbox and show only the emails which have a coloured flag - so I can focus on working on these. It is somewhat cumbersome...
