How to 'go to' a mail when they've been sorted (by subject, to, fr

[Guest]

When a folder is sorted by the to, from, or subject fields, how can I set up
Outlook so that when I press an alpha key, Outlook goes to the first
occurence? For example, sort on the From column with mails from senders last
names Apple, Banana, Cantaloupe. The highlighted bar is on Cantaloupe, I
should be able to press the letter A and have the blue bar jump to Apple.
Some of my folders work like this, others do not. In the ones that do not, I
notice that I am able to edit these fields directly in the folder view.

turn off in-cell editing - it's an option in Customize view, Other settings
dialog.
