The categories normally alternate between 2 different sets of 2 categories;
all in one folder. I suspect I can only save one set in the view?
However, another and quite unexpected problem.... the Outlook file that I'm
searching each time is on my wife's PC - accessed via a workgroup over a very
fast wireless connection; so not actually on my own hard drive. Previously
this gave me no problem - the search was virtually instant. Now, it takes
for ever - as in after 10 minutes, only 21 records (out of about 80, in a
Contacts file of about 2,500) have been found. Is this something to do with
the new indexing system in Office 2007? If so, should I switch it off when
accessing a remote PC which is not running 2007 (and, if so, how?).
