Hi Jim...it's happened to me occasionally too and I *think* what is
actually happening is I am accidentally dragging the mouse just a tad
when I click and ctrl+drag = make a copy

Subject: [mso] Outlook 98 Undesired copy when selecting within message
list
When going through my inbox, I often select a number of messages that I
wish
to delete. Since the messages are often not contiguous, I continuously
hold
down the control key while I left click list elements with my mouse.
Selected elements in the list appear highlighted. When I am done, I use
the
delete key or the shift delete key to get rid of those that I have
selected.
This works fairly well except once in a while selecting a message in the
list, a bunch of the selected entries in the list get duplicated in
the
un- highlighted state. These copies of the selected list elements
appear in
the list for no reason known to me. This is annoying to say the least.
Of
course I can undo this by going to the Edit menu and selecting Undo
Copy..
The duplicate copies then disappear from the list as they should.
Is this an Outlook problem or a Windows 95 problem. Why does this
happen,
and is there a way to avoid it?
