For the past few days ONLY, for no reason, when we try to use Advanced Find
in Outlook 2003, we get an error message "Outlook cannot perform your search.
Outlook cannot display this view." We have tried to repair our Office
installation, but it did not change anything. HELP! We have a lot of
emails, and going through each one when we want to find something specific
will take much more time than we have available!

NOTE: We first posted this along with a problem with Word in the Word -
General Questions forum and requested it also be posted here. This obviously
did not happen - why?

Note:
Because you are using the awfull web interface for groups, and not a
newsreader, Outlook Express eg, and then you would have to post to each
group & not jointly

Also, we suspect the reason is that we had no way to know the USENET address
for the Outlook group - would someone please ask Microsoft to create a
drop-down list instead of a type-in box?
