    - Random asterisks Hello, I'm using an Exchange 2003 server with Outlook 2002 on Windows XP Pro clients. On one of the clients, when the user adds data into a new or existing Contact such as the tel #, repeating random asterisks appear in the field. Once it happens, we are not able to click into that field to delete them. This has happened a few times and before I try switching out the keyboard and/or running an Office Detect & Repair, I wanted to see if this is a known issue with a resolution. Thanks....

    - Change Outlook 2007 contact reminder default time from 4:00pm When I set a follow-up reminder for a contact in Outlook 2007, the default reminder time is set at 4:00pm!!! I know if I change my working day from 8:00am-5:00pm to 8:00am-9:00am it will move the default reminder time to 8:00am as the default reminder time is set to one hour before the end of your working day which is useless as most people start there working day at 8:00am not 4:00pm. The problem is my working day is from 8:00am - 5:00pm and that is how I want outlook set-up. If I set my working day to 8:00am-5:00pm then my default reminder, start time moves to 4:00pm one hour before the end of my workday. Very stupid if you ask me. The programmer must have been smoking weed and only started work at 4:00pm. Seems to me that this is a huge bug in Outlook 2007 that has not been fixed. When will Microsoft release a fix for this problem? 10 years from now? Tag: How do I have my palm find my outlook contacts (Personal Folder) Tag: 124118

    - Deleting contacts Hi, I was having a clean out and thought I was deleting contacts when in fact I was just deleting them from my address book, which I now realise is an entirely separate thing. Is there a way I can quickly delete the contacts I want to get rid of without going through the process manually again? It would be handy to add a category to all my remaining contacts in the address book at once and then delete any contact not categorized, but that doesn't seem to be possible.

    - Automatically Add Email Contacts and Access to Email addresses sto Hi, I have 2 questions regarding outlook 2007 address book. 1. Is there any setting somewhere I can enable so the email addresses used (emails sent to, etc) are automatically added to the address book. It does create a dropdown list of email addresses used when creating an email and the first letter of the email address is typed into the to field. 2. Is there anyway to access all the stored email addresses in the dropdown to list so they can be added to the address book?

    - conversion error import contacts from csv Hi, I made a program to generate a .csv file, to be imported with the menu (File - Import/export etc) into outlook 2003. A month ago it worked, but now there results a conversion error, after selecting the import file, and selecting the destination (Contacts), just before the screen with the field assignments should appear (now it doesnot). When I create a new file manually, and copy the content, the import works well. The strange thing is that the import worked well, a month ago. What could have changed? The red cross error says (translated from dutch, so do not take it literally): "there has been a file error in the By listseparatorsigns separator values (windows)-conversionprogram while initialising a conversion program for building a field assignment. The data of file xxxxx could not be read. Check whether you chose the right file, or have the right authorisation to open or whether it has not been opened by another program". Any help is welcome.

    - I have an issue that NO ONE has been able to solve... I have a new Dell computer running Vista. My issue is when I create a Journal entry for a contact and then go to view it via Activities it randomly shows the entries. Sometimes it shows the Journal entry the first time I click on Activities, sometimes it shows the Journal entry the 5th time I click on Activities. If I reopen the Contact after I was able to view the Journal I may or may not be able to view it again. Both Dell and Microsoft Tech Support have NO IDEA why it acts this way.

    - Some e-mail contacts not working as "to" addresses - undeliverable When I type an address in the "to" field and it starts to auto-complete based on recent address entries, I can hit "return" and it works if it puts the name of the recipient (the "display as" version from contacts) in between apostrophes (so 'John Smith'), or if it gives the name of the person then the e-mail address in between <> (so John Smith <Johnsmith@yahoo.com>). That always works. It also works if I manually type a complete address. But if I get the name of the contact without apostrophes or without the address in brackets, or more importantly, when I click on an address in my contacts it puts in the name of the recipient (the "display as" version, again), but WITHOUT the apostrophe and then it doesn't work. I get an immediate returned mail from "system administrator" but I think this is from Outlook itself, not my ISP. I don't think anything ever left my machine. But not sure on that point. But in any case, the message as "undeliverable" in the subject line and then "the following recipient(s) could not be reached" then the name of the contact, the date/time of the e-mail and then it says "The requested operation failed." I'm using Outlook 2003 and I haven't knowingly changed any settings, but this started happening to me recently (not problems with the same software and setup for years - this spontaneously started happening). I'm not a computer expert - this is the best I can do to describe the problem. Thanks, Gregg Tag: How do I have my palm find my outlook contacts (Personal Folder) Tag: 124021

Outlook doesn't actively participate in the synching except as a data
repository. Consult the vendor of your sync software.
