MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / March 2005MS Outlook 2003:Calendar:Annual Events view:Recurrance Pattern >>.
MS Outlook 2003 In calendar, Annual events view, recurrence pattern is sorted by alphabetic rather than by month order. Not the first time I've come across an illogical sort in a Microsoft GUI - last one was SNA Server 4.0 sorting a numeric column alphabetically - that got sorted.

After furious head scratching, GRhys asked: | MS Outlook 2003 | In calendar, Annual events view, recurrence pattern is sorted by | alphabetic rather than by month order.

When sorting by Recurrence, the sort sequence should be Chronological, not Alphabetical. Feedback to go to Microsoft developers really. The other date field, recurrence range start, includes the start year so although sorted correctly Chronologically, it is from Aug 1937 through to Jan 2003 (for example) not in order in which the birthdays, anniversaries, or other annual events occur within the year. > And? > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > | across an illogical sort in a Microsoft GUI - last one was SNA Server > | 4.0 sorting a numeric column alphabetically - that got sorted. . . . and, when I wanted to print out a list of all the recurring Annual Events, ie Birthdays, in Chronological order, it wasn't possible due to the invalid ordering sequence in the user interface.
