Outlook 2003 - cannot find a string of numbers
I used to be able to do this in Outlook 2000. The string will be in either
the subject or text body...or both. For example: looking for an email message about a specific invoice number 12345. Now, it does not find the number even when I know it's there....and can find it by hunting on my own. Thanks for any help you can offer~

Outlook 2003 - cannot find a string of numbers
"Hello_It''''s_Me-CA" wrote in message ... I used to be able to do this in Outlook 2000. The string will be in either the subject or text body...or both. For example: looking for an email message about a specific invoice number 12345. Now, it does not find the number even when I know it's there....and can find it by hunting on my own. Thanks for any help you can offer~ Outlook has multiple-personalities when it comes to the "Find" function. When you tap the "Find" button, a small bar opens directly below the button bar; if you are typing your "12345" into that box, you may want to click the "Options" item at the right-hand end of the Find bar and ensure that "Search All Text in Each Message" has a checkmark next to it. You could also click the "Options" item and choose "Advanced Find" instead. That will open a new Find window with more options than "you can shake a stick at" as our grandparents used to say.
