Has anyone gotten this to work with Outlook 2002? When I
change from subject to conversation, and then use the group
by, it still doesn't put the original post with the
responses. I added conversation to the fields and removed
subject. I then did a right mouse click on the field names,
clicked on customize current view, then did group by
conversation. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Christine

Okay...so once before I explained how you can sort posts by
setting up a custom view and setting the group by subject.
That worked in all groups, except for this one, due to the
way the group title [mso] is inserted within the subject and
around the RE:...causing the original Q to stand out from
all the replies to it.
But it appears I found a solution (again<g>). Rather than
setting the group to SUBJECT...set it to CONVERSATION! This
appears to keep ALL subject together...even the wacky ones
from this group!<ducking from Linda!>
I THINK this option is available in all (most) previous
versions of Outlook. I'm using 2003...but believe it was
around before.=20
Click on the folder with your support posts (or you
inbox...whichever you need to sort). Click View > Arrange by
(or whatever your version says that's
similar) > Custom and set GROUP BY to CONVERSATION. I tried
it and now the Qs are grouped with all the RE: replies.
Hope this helps...
