What was Microsoft thinking - Outlook 2007 Oddity

[dianemarie]

Am I missing something or is the only option for printing out emails in Outlook 2007 either everything, or odd pages only, or even pages only? I'm flabbergasted.

Also, has anyone noticed that when you delete an appointment with a reminder in Outlook, the reminder still pops up? This includes deleted recurring appointments, which is to say the least annoying when said recurring appointment was initially scheduled weekly for 6 months.

Thought maybe SP1 would help, but no.

Hi, the printing options you get tend to be more down to the printer driver that is installed than the app you are printing from. It could be that is all the options you get anyway (not really looked that close before). Have you got the latest vista drivers from your printer manufacturer?

Yes, we do, we're all over the latest drivers. I don't think this is a driver issue in any case. After Googling this a bit I've found that it is what it is. Apparently when Outlook went with one editor (Word) it kept the Outlook editor printing options, which are limited. A workaround, if the email is HTML format, is to select Other Actions - Open in Browser and then use the printing capability from there.
