From: William23 on 6 Mar 2010 09:30 In Outlook 2003, the search function allowed the task, contacts and calendar folrders to be searched all at once. I just started using Outlook 2007 and I have not been able to duplicate that kind of search. How do i create a search that searches across all 3 folders at once. Thanks for the help

Thanks for the help Do you mean that when you create a custom Search folder, you cannot select those three folders? -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

I also can not select those folders in Instant Search either "Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: > "William23" <William23(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:516DE604-718F-4958-B3A1-2AF04DDBAA59(a)microsoft.com... > > > In Outlook 2003, the search function allowed the task, contacts and calendar > > folrders to be searched all at once.

Advanced Find will allow you to search the way you wish, but it doesn't look like you'll be able to save the search for reuse. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
