Using Outlook 2003. Can't upload the screenshot since www.xsolive.com won't
reocgnize the suggested username (demo\test) and password (xsolive2007)

Which version of outlook are you using? I'm wondering if in-cell editing in
not enabled but need to repro it to know for sure.

In table view, either the FlagStatus dropdown is available or not
(analogous
to a feature being greyed-out). (I am unable to paste here a small
screenshot to illustrate; is there a way to do that?) When passing the
cursor over the cell which is the FlagStatus field for any given record,
the
Dropdown either becomes evident or not. When the entire database is
sorted
by FileAs, for example, the dropdown is sometimes is available and
sometimes
not. Most annoying is that it has worked for before; I'm wondering what I
have done to reset something or other by mistake. (With about 1600
contacts,
I generally rely on Categories to narrow my search, then scanning by eye
the
FileAs field. Finding things without the first level sort (category)
would
be very difficult.) Thank you for responding, Diane, Joe Crallé

Why is Flag Status disabled sometime and enabled other time. I can't
figure
why one way or another. When I have my contacts GroupedBy Category
(friend,
acquaintance, business etc.) and then Sorted by FileAs, the FlagStauts
fails
to open. When simply sorted (not Grouped), the FlagStatus open okay
(but
isn't easily useable because the category's aren't grouped). What
switch
am
I missing? Thanks for your help!
