Hi,

I created a search folder in outlook with two criteria (Due date = Today) and (Completed = No) this displays all the emails that are due (today) and it searches the inbox and all it's subfolders so I don't have to dig through all subfolders.

There is just one glitch. It doesn't update itself automatically, so if I open outlook in the morning it displays the emails from yesterday (which were "today" yesterday

) I have to right click the search folder, click (customize current view) and click OK then it refreshes itself automatically. Any idea why this happens?
 
it definitely should refresh automatically. if not automatically when outlook starts, then when you first go into the folder. Are you using the Advanced tab to create the filter or the Messages tab Time: due Today ?
 
Hi Diane,

Thank you for your quick reply, i am using the QueryBuilder with the following conditions:
AND:
- Due date Today
- Complete Equals No

I also have the same problem for my due dates in the week:
AND:
- Due Date This Week
- Due date on or after Tomorrow
- Complete equals No
 
Ok, I'll test it - I'm curious to see if using the advanced tab or the general tab makes a difference.
