[bcab] Re: MS Outlook with Windows XP: WunderBar?

Clive,
 
    I can't help much here, but wunder bar was the name that Microsoft used
for the main navigation interface for Outlook 2003 during its beta phase.
The navigation pain is the bit that allows you to move between the mail,
calendar, contacts, tasks views etc.
 
    Part of the change from the old Outlook interface to the new wunder bar
interface was that it no longer allowed you to display the shortcuts menu
and the folder list as separate entities. In Outlook 2003, they're both the
same thing.
 
    Having said all that, it doesn't help much in terms of why your folder
list isn't displaying all the time. The first thing to try would be to go to
the View menu and uncheck, then re-check the navigation pane menu item.
 
    I daresay this won't help, but with Microsoft it's usually best to start
with the obvious. If this doesn't help, the only thing I can suggest is
trying to move the position of the reading pane.
 
    Again, I'm not wholly convinced this will help, but go to View and open
the reading pane sub menu. Try moving the reading pane from right to bottom
and see if that helps.
 
    Otherwise, it might be worth doing a repair or reinstall of your Office
Suite and/or Outlook alone. It's possible that something's become corrupt
somewhere in the application.
 
Regards,
Léonie.

Subject: [bcab] MS Outlook with Windows XP: WunderBar?


Hi all, 
in outlook, under Win XP, usually, when I key shift tab from the message
list to the folder list, I usually see the list of folders (Deleted items,
inbox,
etc).  However, from time to time, it simply says: "Wonder Bar!".  What does
this mean, and how do I stop it happening.  When I hear "Wonder Bar", I know
I'm not going to get a folder list, which is not so wunderbar. 
Thanks,
Clive
