Yay! I don't know what happened, but I somehow got the 'reset' button to
ungray(I think it had to do with uncustomized view?), pressed it, went back
and made sure things were customized properly for the view I wanted
and...It's fixed!!! Thanks to all who hung in there with me and gave me
solutions.!!!
I'm back to being productive!

it either means the admin disabled it or they view you are using wasn't
customized. Look on the view menu - what view are you using?

This is interesting: On my home computer I reset the view with no
problem. On my work computer (that I'm having the problem with) the
'Reset View' button is grayed out.
Is this significant?

Did you try resetting the view? right click on the row of field names
and choose custom.

Peter,
Um...I'm not sure what you mean. What subject line? Where?
Did you read my whole message?:
I've tried all the different ways of customizing views and defining
views, but none of these will stay the way I change them.
I know this is a basic Outlook configuration, but my problem is that
the configurator isn't working.

My Inbox insists on arranging by 'From' and stays collapsed. It's
annoying
when you're switching back forth between the main folders. I've tried
all
the different ways of customizing views and defining views, but none
of
these will stay the way I change them. I've even tried reinstalling
Outlook
2007. How can I get it to do what I want it to do?
