Hello --

Does anyone know how to clear multiple flags for multiple email messages at
the same time rather than one by one?

This works in 2007 - I don't have 2002 handy to verify if it works with it:
Select the items (hold shift or ctrl to select a group) and right click - is
clear flag an option?

Unfortunately, that doesn't work in Outlook 2002. I did some further
research too, and it appears there is no way to do this, at least not
natively.

Try grouping by flag and drag between groups.

I just tested it a few times and that works perfectly! Thanks so much!
