Message location in search results screen?

B

Bob

Outlook 2003

When I do a search it seems to find all emails okay but sometimes it is one
I can't locate in the "normal" view. How can I configure the search results
screen to include a message location column? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks... Bob

Are you doing a Find or an Advanced Find? If you're using Advanced Find,
there should already be a "In Folder" column in the results; if not you can
add it using the Field Chooser.

Specifically how do I get to the field chooser you are referring to? I
tried and did not see a location field listed.

Right-click one of the column headers and you'll see Field Chooser in the
context menu. You may have to search through the different categories of
fields (choose different items in the dropdown box) until you find the In
Folder field. Once you find it, drag it to your desired location in the
Advanced Find window and drop it there. I *think* your change will stick the
next time you start an Advanced Find, but I'm not positive and I am not
running OL2003 anymore so I can't double-check.
