I've got a teally annoying problem with my Outlook 2003. For some reason,
emails are opening with only a single click. Previously, I had to
double-click to open. I could view the contents of each email in the reading
pane by clicking on it once, thereby allowing me to review all emails before
deciding which order in which to deal withe them. Because they now all open
on a single click, I can't tell which ones I have dealt with and which I have
not! Double-clicking is the norm, I am sure, so I must have made some
amendment somewhere, but blowed if I can find it. Can anyone help me to
return to double-click to open? Thanks.
 
Control Panel->Mouse->check the option to have files open with a single
click.
