hi throwing my 2 centsin, in current view, make sure, show all messages is check, not group by conversation, in sort by you have 3 choices, from, subject, and receive try changing to subject first, if it doesn't change then received if it still doesn't change, my other question would be?? are you running xp?? if so, you are kinda out of luck, I understand it can be done, but have no idea how to run repair oninternet explorer but, if you are using m. e. or 98, you can go into add remove and run a repair on internet explorer and that will fix outlook express also. curmudgeon les ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arianna Calesso" <acalesso@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, June 27, 2004 2:20 PM Subject: Re: Sorting messages in Outlook Express I tried checking receive on my computer by pressing enter and it just won't check. I also tried by routing the JAWS cursor to the PC cursor and hitting the left mouse button. No go. I just don't understand why.

I've tried using spacebar and enter and neither works. I've always used the enter key in menus to do this, but not in this case. Anyhelp will be appreciated.
