Re: Can't Remove Calendar Filter

M

Marion

Your post helped me to keep searching.

Here's the 'workaround' when icons don't appear. While in Calendar View,
click on menu option 'View', 'Arrange By' and check 'Show Views in Navigation
Pane'. Then you can switch back and forth between the table view and you
desired option.

New Issue: After closing and reopening Outlook, how can I make it save the
'desired option' I previously selected? It keeps going back to table view.
Thanks.

When you use Search while in a Day/Week/Month view, it switches to a table
view. You need to reapply the Day/Week/Month view. Look on the view menu.

Is Outlook the lamest software ever made?? I did a search on my Calendar
in Outlook 03 and it filtered the calendar for the results. I closed
Outlook without first clicking Clear. Now, going back into Outlook, it
says "(Filter Applied)" at the top; but the Clear button is grayed out. So
I can't remove the filter! And there's no "Remove Filter" option on the
menus. So it's so confused, it doesn't even know that it's filtering the
calendar, even though it says "(Filter Applied)" at the top! How lame is
that?

so I tried doing a search within the filtered results, figuring, this way
I'd get my Clear button back. And I did! After doing a search, I was able
to click Clear. However, clicking Clear only brought me back to my
original, filtered set, not to the whole calendar.

Uggggh!!!

if outlook is closing completely it should save the last used view.

Make sure Outlook is not listed in Task Manager, Processes tab. If it is
running, figure out why it's running. See
http://www.slipstick.com/problems/close.asp. if its not, try resetting the
view.
