If you want to save discard or update the folder view, I hope that it is useful for you and provide Outlook Support for solve your problem. As you change to a new view of a folder, Microsoft Outlook does not give you an option to save or discard changes that are made to the current view. Outlook automatically saves the current changes to the view.

To return any view to its original settings in Microsoft Outlook 2000 and in Microsoft Outlook 2002
1. On the View menu, point to Current View, and then click Define Views.
2. In the list of views, click to select the view that you want to return to its original settings.
3. Click Reset, click OK, and then click Apply View.
Outlook returns the view to its original settings.


To return any view to its original settings in Microsoft Office Outlook 2003
1. On the View menu, point to Arrange By, point to Current View, and then click Define Views.
2. In the list of views, click to select the view that you want to return to its original settings.
3. Click Reset, click OK, and then click Apply View.


In Microsoft Outlook 97, when you made changes to a view, such as adding fields, sorting, or filtering, you received a prompt to discard the changes, save them under a new view name, or update the current view. Later versions of Outlook automatically update the current view with the changes without prompting.

Most Outlooks users turn off Outlook’s email notification message. With the volume of emails we all receive these days, it is way too detrimental to productivity to have a message interrupt you every time you receive an email. But… what if you want to be alerted whenever you receive emails from particular people… maybe your boss… or an important client.

Did you know that you can use Rules to display an alert similar to the one shown below... so that it will only come up when you receive an email from one or more specific email addresses?




Here are step by step instructions…

Go to your Inbox.

Click Tools-Rules and Alerts to display the Rules dialog box.


Click the New Rule button to display the Rules Wizard screen


Click “Display mail from someone in the New Item Alert Window”. (A on the picture above)

Click on “people or distribution” list (B on the picture above) to display the Rule Address screen.

Select someone from the list or type in the person’s email address in the From field.

Click OK to go back to the Rules Wizard screen.

Click “a specific message” (C on the picture above)

Type in what you want the alert message to say and click OK e.g. Email from Boss!

Click Finish


The next time you receive an email from that person, Outlook will display a message over everything else that you are working on.

This simple trick has helped our own team a lot. I hope it works well for you too.

Microsoft Outlook is great when you are using a traditional email address from your ISP. However, it is not so great if you are using a web based email address and you are using Vista. It seems pretty confusing, and it is, because before Vista people had no problems at all linking their web based email addresses like hotmail, AOL, and Gmail to their Outlook Express. However, the new Outlook and Vista do not work that way so you will need to keep that in mind. Some people find that Outlook 2007 training is worthwhile in order to learn a little more about the process and what all has been changed. More than likely you will appreciate the time and effort you put into taking Vista training and Outlook training because it will prepare you to use these programs effectively. So many changes have been made that without training you will feel completely lost the first fewer days.

There are many benefits to programs like Microsoft Outlook, but you should look at the software and consider what is in your best interest to install. For example, if you install the Office 2008 suite you will need to take tutorials on the 2008 editions of all the programs, but Word 2007 training would not help you very much. As a result it is important to understand what programs you will install and the ones you will use the most.

Most people like Microsoft Outlook because it allows them to keep copies of their sent and received messages for a long period of time. Also, it is easy to use Outlook because you can simply begin typing in a contact's name and their email address appears in the box. It is so easy to use and convenient and that is why so many people like it.

Of course, there are other benefits to Outlook as well. You can search all of your information really easy and fast. You will also appreciate the calendar where you can manage your information and your daily activities and events. It is easy to manage your shared information as well. There are also features to prevent malicious sites and junk email.

These are just a few of the benefits of Outlook. If you have been using a web based email program you will certainly enjoy the benefits of Microsoft Outlook.

You can set up rules to have Outlook 2002 help you manage incoming e-mail messages. For example, Outlook can:

• Alert you when you receive a message from your supervisor.
• Move messages that have the text "Meeting Minutes" in the Subject line to your Meetings folder.
• Flag incoming messages that are from a distribution list.

To set up a rule which provide Outlook Support to do this?

1. On the Tools menu, click Rules Wizard.
2. Click New.
3. Click an action in the upper list.
4. Customize the action in the lower list.
5. Click Next.
6. Provide any additional information based on the action that you selected.
7. Click Finish.

I am going to discuss how to create distribution list using BCC. It provide Outlook Support for Creating distribution list Using BCC.

Do you send email to the same people over and over again? Instead of typing out the recipient's names, create a distribution list. Go to File

Click New

Click Distribution List The Distribution List window will open up. Give a name to the list, then press "Select Members". The Select Members window will open up. Double Click on the names you wish to add.

After the contacts have been added to the members field click OK. This will close the Select Members window. If you wish to add someone who is not on your contact list: Press "Add New" in the distribution list window. The Add New Member window will open. Enter the name of new member in the Display Name field.

Enter the e-mail address of the new member in the E-mail Address field.

Press OK and the new member will be added to your Distribution List.

Save and Close the Distribution List window. When you want to e-mail this group just type in the name of the List rather than each recipients name.

Now that you understand how to create a distribution list you should understand "Bcc" or Blind Carbon Copy.

"Bcc" allows you to send an e-mail without showing everyone the e-mail address of the recipients. It also is the polite thing to do. This way you're not inadvertently sharing a person's e-mail with a group of people they may not know, by including them in a mass email. You can also use the "Bcc" field to quietly notify a third party that a message has been sent.

Use of "Bcc" for long lists of addresses is important for two reasons: It protects the privacy of those to whom you send a message, and It makes forwarded e-mail less confusing to read When using "Bcc" add your own e-mail in the To: field to ensure yours is the only address shown.

All e-mail programs support "Bcc", but it may not be the default option. In Outlook 2007, click "New" for a new e-mail, then under the Options Tab click the "Show Bcc" button In Outlook 2003, click "New" for a new e-mail, then click the little down arrow to the right of "Options" and select "Bcc". Once selected, "Bcc" will be available for all new e-mails.

Here are some suggestions for using the different fields when sending e-mail. To: Add recipients who you are directly communicating with. There is nothing wrong with a list of e-mails, as long as there is no problem with each recipient being able to see the other recipient's e-mail address

Cc: Known as Carbon Copy. Use "Cc": to send a copy of the e-mail to recipients not required to participate in the communication. It allows the To: recipients to known that someone else is also receiving the e-mail

Bcc: Blind Carbon Copy is where you put e-mail addresses that should not be seen by other recipients.

Microsoft Windows uses the default Web browser setting when you click links in a document or on a Web page. Windows uses Microsoft Internet Explorer by default, but you can change to a different browser if you want to.
To change from Internet Explorer to another browser, do one of the following:
• If you haven't installed another browser, do that first. During installation, most browsers display a message asking if you want to use that browser as the default browser.
• If the browser that you want to use is already installed, open it. You should see a message asking if you want to use that browser as the default browser. If you don't see the message, use the following instructions, but choose the browser that you want to use instead of Internet Explorer.
To make Internet Explorer your default Web browser
1. Open Internet Explorer. (Click Start, and then click Internet Explorer. If you don't see Internet Explorer on the Start menu, point to All Programs, and then click Internet Explorer.)
o If a message appears asking if you want Internet Explorer to be your default browser, click Yes.
o If a message does not appear, go to Step 2.
2. On the taskbar, click Start, and then click Set Program Access and Defaults.
Note The Set Program Access and Defaults option is available only in Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 1 or Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2.
3. In the Add or Remove Programs dialog box, click Custom, and then click the arrow to the right.
4. Under Choose a default Web browser, click Internet Explorer, and then click OK.
Tip If you have more than one Web browser installed, you can hide links to those browsers from the Start menu, the Windows taskbar, and your desktop by clearing the Enable access to this program check box.

Dates appear in Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 based on the format specified in the settings for your operating system. If you want to change the date display — for example, to be a day-month-year format instead of month-day-year format — you change this in the Control Panel program in Microsoft Windows Vista and earlier.

Note All programs on your computer that use date settings from your operating system will be affected by the changes that you make in Control Panel.

Change date settings in Windows Vista

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Clock, Language, and Region, and then under Regional and Language Options, click Change the date, time, or number format.

2. On the Formats tab, click Customize this format.

3. On the Date tab, specify any changes that you want to make, under Short date and Long date.

Change date settings in Microsoft Windows XP

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Regional and Language Options.

2. On the Regional Options tab, under Standards and formats, click Customize.

3. On the Date tab, specify any changes that you want to make, under Short date and Long date.

If you do not see the format that you want in Short date or Long date, follow the guidelines specified in the following table.

Note Type an upper case M for the month setting. The lowercase m is used for the minute setting.

When you use Microsoft Office Outlook, you need a place to keep your e-mail messages, calendar, tasks, and other items. This storage place, known as a data file, allows you to keep your data on your computer. Here I am going to discuss and provided outlook support for manage outlook data files and how to save on to your computer.
About Outlook data files
When Outlook saves items to your computer, it uses a type of data file called an Outlook Personal Folders file (.pst) (Personal Folders file (.pst): Data file that stores your messages and other items on your computer. You can assign a .pst file to be the default delivery location for e-mail messages. You can use a .pst to organize and back up items for safekeeping.). If you are using a Microsoft Exchange Server account, your items are usually delivered to and saved on the mail server. To allow you to work with your messages even when you cannot connect to the mail server, Outlook offers Offline Folders, which are saved in another type of data file called an Offline Folder file (.ost) (Offline Folder file: The file on your hard disk that contains offline folders. The offline folder file has an .ost extension. You can create it automatically when you set up Outlook or when you first make a folder available offline.) on your computer.
The primary distinctions between the two types of Outlook data files are:
• The Outlook .ost files are used only when you have an Exchange Server account and choose to work offline or use Cached Exchange Mode.
• The Outlook .pst files are used for POP3 (POP3: A common protocol that is used to retrieve e-mail messages from an Internet e-mail server.), IMAP (IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol): Unlike Internet e-mail protocols such as POP3, IMAP creates folders on a server to store/organize messages for retrieval by other computers. You can read message headers only and select which messages to download.), and HTTP accounts. When you want to create archives or back up your Outlook folders and items on your computer, including Exchange Server accounts, you must create and use additional .pst files.

While it's true that e-mail can make communication more efficient, it's also true that the volume of messages can get overwhelming quickly. And, too much e-mail can make you feel out of control.

Outlook 2007 includes features to help you control e-mail Support volumes, find what you need, and act when and where action is required. Some of these features have been with Outlook Support all along, and some are new to this version. The good news is that all these features are flexible; so you'll be able to adapt them to fit your own organizational style.

This course will give you a glimpse of what's available. As you learn, you may find that some features are more your style than others. That's okay. Once you know what works for you, you'll see how easy it is to get out of your Inbox and into your day.

To learn more about this course, read the text in Goals and About this course, or look at the table of contents. Then click Next to start the first lesson.

Using the Research feature, you can translate single words or short phrases by using bilingual dictionaries or translate your entire document by using Web-based machine translation services. To translate text, you may also need to satisfy the operating system requirements for specific languages.
Machine translation is helpful for conveying the basic subject matter of the content and for confirming whether the content is relevant to you. For important or sensitive documents, human translation is recommended, because machine translation may not preserve the full meaning and tone of the text.This provided Outlook Support to using outlook with Excel.
Follows the Steps ..
1. On the Review tab, click Translate.
2. If this is the first time you have used translation services, click OK to install the bilingual dictionaries and enable the translation service through the Research task pane.
3. To change the languages that are used for translation, in the Research task pane, under Translation, select the languages that you want to translate from and to. For example, to translate English to French, click English (U.S.) in the From list and French (France) in the To list.
Note To customize which resources are used for translation, click Translation options, and then select the look-up options that you want.
4. Do one of the following:
o To translate a specific word, press ALT and click a word. The results appear in the Research task pane under Translation.
o To translate a short phrase, select the words, press ALT and click the selection. The results appear in the Research task pane under Translation.
o To translate a word or phrase, type the word or phrase in the Search for box, and then click Start Searching .

The Detect language automatically option in Outlook and Word can automatically detect the language you are typing in and enable the proofing tools for that language. This has the same result as if you manually set the language.

This information applies to Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, not Microsoft Outlook Express. For information about Outlook Express, see the Outlook Express Support Center.

1. Open a new e-mail message.

2. On the Message tab, in the Proofing group, click the arrow under Spelling.

3. Click Set Language Button image.

4. Select the Detect language automatically check box.

5. Review the languages shown above the double line in the Mark selected text as list. Outlook can only detect those languages listed above the double line. If there are languages you use that are not shown above the double line, you must enable those languages (turn on the language-specific options) to have Outlook automatically detect them.

Note Automatic language detection does not work on a single-word basis but on a sentence basis. Depending on the length of your sentences, you might need to type several sentences before Outlook has enough contextual information to automatically detect the language and apply the correct dictionary.

Outlook Web Access (OWA) is a webmail service of Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 and later, originally called Exchange Web Connect (EWC). The web interface of Outlook Web Access resembles the interface in Microsoft Outlook. Outlook Web Access comes as a part of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and previous versions of Exchange.

OWA is used to access e-mail (including support for S/MIME), calendars, contacts, tasks, and other mailbox content when access to the Microsoft Outlook desktop application is unavailable. In the Exchange 2007 release, OWA also offers read-only access to documents stored in Microsoft SharePoint sites and network (UNC) shares. Microsoft provides Outlook Web Access as part of Exchange Server to allow users to connect remotely via a web browser. Some of the functionality in Outlook is also available in this web "look-alike". The most important difference is that Microsoft Outlook allows users to work with e-mail, calendars, etc., even when a network connection is unavailable, whereas OWA requires a network connection to function.

OWA can be used from Internet cafes and any other location that provides connectivity to the Web. The OWA interface available in Exchange 2000, Exchange 2003, and Exchange 2007 is available in two flavors. The "Premium" user interface is rendered for Internet Explorer 5 (for the 2000 and 2003 releases) and Internet Explorer 6 SP1 and later for the 2007 release. The "Basic" user interface (UI) is rendered for other browsers. Some functions, such as Search, are not available in the Basic UI.

The first component to allow client-side scripts to issue HTTP requests (XMLHTTP) was originally written by the Outlook Web Access team. It soon became a part of Internet Explorer 5.0. Renamed XmlHttpRequest and standardized by international bodies^, it has since become one of the cornerstones of the Ajax technology used to build advanced web applications.
