MOVE TO FOLDER... only appears. I need MOVE TO FOLDER

[Dylan56]

This is very odd and I've found that I've had this problem before with
not finding icons. Some I've found at the office don't appear here
and vice versa, or they act differently. I have Outlook 2000 in both
places! Very odd.

At home, I couldn't find the HIGH IMPORTANCE icon under the list of
items available in the customize. Yet I have it at work. That's the
one where when the HIGH IMPORTANCE is on, it shows a depressed button
state. I really need that in both places.

Anyway, simple (or so I thought) - I ended up just brining the toolbar
from work on a floppy, as per normal.

But the MOVE TO FOLDER in the toolbar doesn't work the same here at
home now. The icon works here as the MOVE TO FOLDER... one so now
every time I go to move a msg (which I do _constantly_ to keep my
inbox manageable), I get a folder list! Every single time!!

I've gone through the customize options several times now since I
"installed" the toolbar from work. I went back to the old one from
before and the MOVE TO FOLDER works fine there. But the new items
available under customize don't show the one I need.

How can I get the one back that brings up the last folders visited
instead of the folder view? Pls, it seems with Outlook, it's turning
out like Word <sigh>. The more one uses it, the more one comes up
against its serious limitations. It gets to be very frustrating and
difficult. If I can just get this back, things will be easier.

(Thank god Excel has proved it goes the distance! <g>)

Thank you so much!

Close Outlook - then find and rename the outcmd.dat file to .old. Reopen
Outlook and use the customization options to set up your toolbar exactly how
you want. Once you are done, close Outlook, find and copy the outcmd.dat
file to a safe place for storage. Should you ever have problems again with
Outlook toolbars, just rename the current one and copy the saved outcmd.dat
file to the same location.

Oh, no. Does that mean I lost my current file? Has it become
corrupted somehow?
