Outlook 2k3 on Vista Pro changes my email fields and layout on its

O

Oldrenders

E.g. in my Sent items it will remove the "To" field column and insert the
"From" column. Similarly, in the Inbox, it will remove the "From" column and
insert the "To" column. I have to manually remove the fields and re-insert
the correct ones using the field chooser facility, but the fix is not
permanent. Note that I use the find facility quite often. Am I missing
something really obvious here? All suggestions most welcome. Thanks, Geoff

It sounds like you've corrupted your views. There is no need to modify the
views that way. There is a default Messages view which is for folders where
you store emails which you have received and there is a Sent To view for
folders in which you store emails which you have sent out.

Reset those view via File-> Arrange By-> Current View-> Define Views...
or reset all your view by starting Outlook with the /cleanviews switch

Start-> type; outlook.exe /cleanviews
