MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Forms / August 2003Activities Tab on Contact Form - Not pulling in all data
When I choose "all items" on the activities tab of the contact form, Outlook should pull in all items from the public folders relating to that contact but it's not. Any ideas why? Thanks in advance for your help! Sadie An Activities view can only scan more than one folder in your default PST or mailbox. In a public folder the view has to be set up to only search in that public folder and no other folders at all. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Lead Author, Professional Outlook 2000 Programming, Wrox Press Lead Author, Beginning VB 6 Application Development, Wrox Press Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/attachmentoptions.htm Extended Reminders http://www.slovaktech.com/extendedreminders.htm > When I choose "all items" on the activities tab of the > contact form, Outlook should pull in all items from the [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Sadie Ken, I don't understand what you mean. Please elaborate. If there is an option to "show all public folders", I don't see why it won't search all public folders. Thanks. >-----Original Message----- >An Activities view can only scan more than one folder in your default [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > >. A search for Activities in a public folder can only search that one public folder, no others and no mailbox or PST folders. That's a limitation of Exchange. Showing folders has nothing to do with it. Right-click on the contacts folder in the Folder List or Outlook Bar, select Properties, then go to the Activities tab. You can define Activities views there. Create a new view, name it, and select folders for it. You will see that for a public folder you can only select that one and nothing else. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Lead Author, Professional Outlook 2000 Programming, Wrox Press Lead Author, Beginning VB 6 Application Development, Wrox Press Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/attachmentoptions.htm Extended Reminders http://www.slovaktech.com/extendedreminders.htm > Ken, > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Thanks. |
