In:
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 [Part of Microsoft Office Professional 2007]

When I created a new folder [under 'Inbox' or a subfolder of Inbox], the new
folder is always customized to be Grouped By 'Categories'. The folder above
the newly created folder is not customized this way.

I'd like to find a way for the new folder to not be set this way. As of
now, every time I create a new folder I have to go to Customize Current View
and manually set the Group By to "(none)".

Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you very much.

folders do not inherit the view of the parent folder - they use the default
messages view. Either fix the default view to your liking or make a custom
view and apply it to the new folders.

Use the method described at http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/grouping.htm
to change the default view.

Thank you. That got me where I needed to be.

A follow-up, however, is that in the web page you gave the URL for, you
mention:

"Because Outlook often creates 'one-off' views when you change a current
view... "

It's not that I don't understand the term 'one-off', but in this instance, I
was just hoping you could help me better understand what you mean by it.
(if you have the chance; whatever the case, thank you very much for
answering my question)
