Outlook CTRL+ H does not work since recent Windows Update

J

John

I used to be able to see just messages to and from me by pressing CTRL + H.

This morning Windows Update installed a security fix and the CTRL+H no longer works.

Does any one know how to repair this or has it just "gone" for security reasons?

Ctrl + H = Show Replies to my Messages

Check for yourself.
Ah you can't. :-( X-Newsreader: Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000.

If you used a *real* newsreader you could.

OE | View | Current View | Show Replies to my Messages Ctrl + H

I use Ctrl + H all the time.
===========================
Get rid of that Neanderthal CDO and setup OE.

Wes,

I have this rubric: "6.00.2900.2055".

Following your instructions I can get the view change to show my messages with the mouse [intellipoint 5.01 optical trackball] but the hot keyboard combination does not work.

Thanks for your help! it is not important. The keyboard combo is not important.

Outlook or Outlook Express?

A recent MS Office or MS Outlook update may be responsible if Ctrl+H isn't
working in Outlook Express. Manually install Q330994 from this page:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=330994

Is Outlook is your default Mail Client, it's best to access News via OL:
View>Go to>News, instead of opening a separate instance of OE. See OL Help.
