There's a lot in Outlook that isn't very intuitive. I usually find the most
useful features by doing the opposite of what I thought I should.

Thanks Russ, that worked. It's obvious that I need to spend a lot more
time
learning the features of Outlook. As mentioned, I have been using ACT! for
a
number of years now and never really spent any amount of time with
Outlook.

I am a longtime ACT! user and one of the features I am missing is the
customizable lookup feature. For example, when I am going to a city on
business I can create a specific lookup for that particular city. It
will
then create a list of all my customers in that city and only that city.
ACT!
also allows you to create a lookup from any field but it is this one
that
I
miss the most.

I tried to create a new "view" in Outlook by setting Country/Region
first,
then State/Prov and City but all this does is list all 1,600 contacts
this
way and it is not even sorted alphabetically by city. Any ideas?
