Hi all,
Using Outlook 2003 in English I've added a some custom text fields (eg. "Request ID") to the current view (inbox folder). I was hoping to be able to type a value into this new text field for each email in the inbox, so I could easily sort and reference the messages. I see the empty column in the view on screen, but how can I enter a value in that column? Double-click opens the message and it's not in the message properties or options... Any ideas? Thank you in advance, James |

YOu can do that if you set the view for in-cell editing. It's on the Other Settings options for the view.
