Is there a way to turn off the Preview Pane globally?

[Bob Stringer]

I have Outlook 2002 running on Win2k.

I never use the Preview Pane. Recently, some glitch happened
that froze Outlook, so that I had to close it through the
Task Manager and then re-boot. When I launched Outlook
again, everything was okay *except* that the Preview Pane
was now activated in every single sub folder in my inbox and
outbox.

I have so many folders that it would be a major pain to go
into each one in order to change the setting back so that
the Preview Pane isn't used. Is there a way to accomplish
this globally?

Thanks.

Start Outlook with the /nopreview switch.

Hi, Jocelyn.

Would you please explain that? I honestly don't understand
what your answer means.

Thanks.
