Little bit of help with Outlook pls
 
A colleague's sent items show the 'From' field, instead of the 'To' field - so not very useful :roll:

Can't easily see how to change it - but I know it can be changed as that's how I have mine. Can't believe he's put up with it for 4 years :rolleyes:

Outlook 2003 on Windows XP

Cheers:D

I think this oughta do it. I found it after a bit of a google

1. Open your Sent Items folder. Right click on the column header (for example, Subject).
2. Choose "Customize Current View". Click Fields.
3. Scroll down to "To" and click Add. You can move "To" up or down the list to, normally you would want it near the top.
4. Click "From" on the list on the right and click Remove.

Ohhh can I hijack then? Does anyone know how to force the use English dictionary (Instead of US English) when using Word as the Outlook email editor? Word when used for documents uses UK English.

Thanks

not sure where the Philipines comes into it, but I've changed something & i'll see if it works later [-o<

Well the Phillipines has nothing to do with it really, just pointed me at the Microsoft Office XP Language Settings facility. It was set to US English, so I changed it to UK Egnlish and now all good. Had to install the Microsoft Office XP Language Settings off the CD though, so maybe I was just missing a bit that allowed me to make this change.
