Anybody customized MS Outlook lately?
I've been using my current config for years without
change. Outlook is what is mandated by the employer.
A new kid at our office wants to install
Outlook Express because he doesn't like the way
full Outlook is showing his message-received dates.
He prefers Today, Yesterday, Sunday, Saturday... Last
Week, Last Month... Previous Millenium...
I remember switching that OFF in KMail and possibly
in Pegasus, because I really dislike that style. I
don't remember if that was ever an option in Outlook.
Can't seem to find it in the menus, and the Help is,
as usual, unhelpful.
What I did find was about a dozen different ways
to display date-and-time, but none with that Today,
Yesterday... etc.
A cube neighbor was trying to tell the new kid
that he needed to set up reports and other db-ish stuff,
but that sounds a little excessive.
Anybody know what I'm talking about and where it
is set? Outlook 2003.
Kevin (who doesn't expect to hear from Americans today - happy fourth!)
