renaming columns
Hi,
I followed the highly recommended advice of several posts to create custom folders and store my mail in those folders rather than using the default folders such as "Inbox", "Send Items" etc. I did that, but encountered one problem with that: I created a new folder named "Send Items 2" and "Inbox 2". When I look at the "Send Items 2" folder the column shows "From" instead of "To". However, when I change the column to "To" all the other folders apply these changes and the "Inbox 2" folder will have a "To" column instead of a "From" column. How can I change the columns in each folder individually without changing all the other folders where the changes do not apply? Thanks, AJS

renaming columns
There are only two options for OE column headers.
Inbox - Deleted Items - and User Created folders share the same layout. If you change one, you change them all. Likewise for Outbox - Sent Items - and Drafts. Change one and you change the other two. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "AJS" wrote in message ...

renaming columns
Try renaming your mail folders with names that do not include the default
mail folder names. For example, instead of "Inbox 2" try something like "AJS Mail". -- Ted Zieglar "Backup is a computer user's best friend." "AJS" wrote in message ...

Thanks,
But when I changed the "Send Items 2" folder, (a subfolder of the default "Send Item" folder, both the "Inbox" and the "Inbox 2" folder changed their columns too.

though the folder was a sub-folder of Sent Items, it is still a user created folder. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "AJS" wrote in message ...
