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
 
Thank you!

Didn't expect that one :)
Before asking dumb questions, I first went thru all the fields, OCR'ed the screenshots I made, pasted them into Excel, sorted them.

Anyway, thanks again. It worked out fine.

Microsoft has a list too - :)

The Message field also goes by Notes in Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks items. From is another one with two names - it's Organizer in the calendar.

And on the fields that are used in all items, you can choose it from any of the "all [item] fields' (including Message/Notes and From/Organizer). I do this a lot because I'm lazy - using All Mail Fields means less scrolling. :)
