Hi there, I can add folders to the Favorite Folders list in OL2003 however each time I restart OL, the list has gone back to the default. Is there a setting I need to look at or is this a fault? Cheers, Pete

Yes, it's handy to have access to mails on the go, although I have a wireless mail solution, it's limited to me having 300 of the most recent messages in my inbox, which at over 100 mails a day is not much history. Activesync on my PDA is set to sync regardless of timeframe.

Hi there, I have an XDA II synching on a WinXP machine using ActiveSync 4.2. For some reason, everytime I cradle my XDA, it completely synchs all mail in my Outlook inbox. It only seemed to start happening when I moved from ActiveSync 3.8 to 4.2 so I'm guessing it's something to do with AS...

Hi there, I'd like to find a way to disable the automatic phone number formatting that Outlook applies when you enter a phone number into a contact. It's quite annoying and it quite frankly does a terrible job of interpreting the number format. Any help would be appreciated. Peter

Hi there, I have an XDA II and wanted to free up some RAM to fit more software on it. I'm a bit of a horder and had saved 3600 SMS messages on my device. So I acquired some software that exported the messages and now I have under 100 messages. However, from what I can see, it has made...

Hi there, Just had my PC rebuilt and for some reason, in my Inbox and in my Calendar, the right-click context menus don't seem to be working. In my folder view, I get a context menu and in other apps I do, but on individual mails and calendar items, I right-click and nothing happens. Has...

Hi Jimp56, I checked out the link and that would have worked but on my system, that is greyed out. Any clues? Pete

Spot on LB, that'd do the trick nicely.

Thanks Gary, my head was starting to hurt...! I'm trying to create a matrix, rows and columns, to help me count the flow of calls in a multiple call centre environment. For instance, the rows are the source groups, and the columns are the destination groups. The report has a formula that for...

Hi Pete, Could you create a running total with a formula contained that uses a variable to store the total for the grouped interval. You can then check using the "previous" function to see if the current value is greater than the previous one. If it is then save it to the variable otherwise...

Hi there, I've been beating my head against a brick wall trying to figure out how to do multidimensional arrays in Crystal. It would seem you can't but can someone please verify if that's the case, and if there are any suggestions on how to work around that. Ta, Pete

Hi there, I have an XDA II and use letter recogniser which has worked fine until today. I have not installed any new software. I was inputting some text and suddenly I lost the ability to enter the letter T, or I or any letter requiring two strokes. I have no idea why this happened and would...

Hi KenWright, been there, installed Outlook Shutdown add-in, no change. Compacted the folders. No change. Ran ScanPST a number of times, no errors found. As I said, this is an Outlook bug. I know for a fact that OL is closed when I shut down, and as I said, I'm not the only one. I don't...

Hi, I'm using WinXP and Outlook 2002 (XP) and annoyingly, each time I start it up, I get this error message advising that the data file (and most of my personal folders appear) was not closed properly and is being checked for errors. I also uncradle my PDA before shutting down OL and I also...

Hi Ro, Aaah, great point and indeed, query performance could be an issue as the database grows. I've not had experience with SQL expressions but after re-reading your suggestion, will try that when I get back into the office Monday (it's the weekend here in Australia). Thanks for getting back...

Hi everyone, Thanks to you all for your prompt replies. I actually went with CrystalVictims suggestion (using the instr() function) and it has worked a treat. But many other interesting solutions to consider and thanks to you all for taking the time. Cheers, Pete

Hi there, I am retrieving records using the LIKE operator on a text field. The pattern I'm searching for is *HIC* (including the asterisks). So, when I use ...LIKE "*HIC*"... I'm finding text fields that have the word "which" and so forth. I've also tried "**HIC**" but this also returned any...

Thanks Chris. I know of the reg hack you mentioned, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;259514 tried it but still doesn't seem to work. Cheers, Pete

Hi, Running OL2K SP-3 on W2K and am getting this damned anoying message preventing me from opening up attachments directly form the mail message. Is there any way at all of disabling this feature allowing me to open up attachments without having to save them? Cheers, Pete

Hi Gareth, just letting you know I have the exact same problem. I know this is an old post, but if anyone has a solution I'd appreciate it. I've just rebuilt my PC from ground up (literally 3 days old). Cheers, Pete
