Hi,

I want the messages to be appear in the same color as the flag color.

Is it possible in Outlook 2003 on Windows XP?

Cheers,
Ashish

The message header in the inbox list? You could create a custom view to
change the text colors.

Where do you want them to appear that way? It might be possible with some
conditional formatting rules but I've never tried it

Not unless you use conditional formatting.

I have used conditional formating on search folder for Follow up whioch
solved my problem. I have to set it each flag but outlook should offer
something out of the box.

I am a Mac user at home. OS X provides labeling files so the filename
appears in that color. That is cool and I can locate the files easily.

Let me clarify that Outlook is a great product and I absolutely love it
being a Mac user also and I have Entourage at home which is far far
better than outlook.

I use both Outlook on Windows and Entourage on Mac - I would say that
Entourage is far. far DIFFERENT that Outlook but "better" is judgement call.
It is not as good as Outlook for how I use a PIM. YMMV.
