printing advanced find results in Outlook 2007
This is not a new topic, but I cannot find the original post.
This is definitely a bug: I use a Contact folder for vendors (distributors). I have search words (manufacturers) saved in a category of the contact. I search the search word in advanced find and get a list of contacts. I should be able to print the list in Table View. But when I print ( have tried every way of printing with left click and right click that you name) all I get is the column headings and a border around the page. The results of the search do show in Print Preview. This has worked in every iteration of Outlook since Outlook 97. I tried to call this into Microsoft as a bug, but I was told I would have to pay for technical support and then get a credit if I was correct. The work-around is to make a subfolder of the search term, do the search, copy the results in to the new subfolder which then will print in Table View. This needs to get to the developers. |

Hi, thanks, my Office 2007 came on my new Vista computer. Actually, two
copies, one on a Vista Business machine, one on a Vista Home Premium machine. Same results on both. I am much more looking to get this to the developers and to get it fixed than I am looking for a fix of *my* problem. ::RSM "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: File | Print | Table View works fine here.

I am sure that you are all trying to be helpful, but I find it hard to
believe that I would have the exact same problem on two different machines with two different printers. Detect and Repair is a pretty global tool, it just goes through everything, one can not specify a problem to be solved. So, It is not very useful if 99% of the functionality is there. As I said, I can make a sub-folder of the search word, do the Advanced Find search on the category with the search words, and then copy the results in to the new sub-folder, which does print fine in Table View. So, sorry, I think it is a bug. Can y'all tell me exactly what are your steps, the way I outlined my steps? ::RSM Also, I do not know what Ms Poremsky would be referring to in the way of an addin.

Nope-
I'm just doing what I have done since Outlook 97. I search the category, the contacts with the search word appear in Table View, and I go to File|Print. That is what I have always done.

Hi, I am calling Dell, my vendor. But, you know, I just a typical little
user. You, on the other hand, are a Rock Star. WinIt Pro, all the books, If *you* approached Microsoft-and I am sure that they know who you are- something might get done. I have a good work-around. I make a sub folder of the search word, do the search, and copy the resulting contacts in to the new sub-folder, put it into Table View as a telephone list, and that will print. I remember years ago, there was from Outlook 97 onward for quite a while a problem with importing a database into Outlook from Access or Excel. The email addresses and fax number would not parse correctly. This problem remained until a Microsoft guy in Texas (I had screamed so loud to Redmond that he actually called me, his name was Ab something) came up with KB 166333 and things got fixed in a while. So, I have already done some screaming at MSFT today, to know avail. They told me to go to Tech Support and PAY for an incident. Then If I was correct, they would credit the charge. Mind you, I do not need any help. I wanted to help them. It is not that i think that they way I use Outlook contacts is common, with search words (I had to find a category we never use, I used Administrator's Assistant, I think you still can not use Keywords which is reserved to MSFT) but, you know, I do use it this way, I paid for software that has always worked So, I would urge you to use your fame and reputation to bring attention to this matter. ::RSM "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Now I'm seeing the problem, too, on Windows XP.
