trickier.

Is there a way within the advanced find (or a search folder, same thing) to
specify the following criterion?
* All messages received between 1:00 pm and 3:00 pm for the past week

If there is no way within Outlook itself, any suggestions on the easiest way
to get the
information?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

you can do it only by hours for today. past dates are all day. even if you
use querybuilder (http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2004/20040927.htm)
and AND two rules together, the time rule (between 1 pm and 3 pm) assumes
today, not any day.

I don;t know if any 3rd party search tool could get it that exact - most
searches work on dates, not times within those dates.
