Searching in customized views of outlook forms in public folders
Created customized outlook form (based on task list). Defined some views and
published it in the public folders. When searching data / entries with the "find" function nothing is found. Even if the data / entries are displayed in the view. Are there any special settings required?

Searching in customized views of outlook forms in public folders
What specifically are you searching for? You need to use Advanced Find to search on custom fields in a public folder.

Searching in customized views of outlook forms in public folde
Thanks for the info.
Is there any way to customize (limit to certain fields / define view of the results) & save an advanced find? The saved advanced find should be accessible for all users.

Searching in customized views of outlook forms in public folde
Depending on your Outlook version, you may have a File | Save As command on the Advanced Find dialog. (Newer versions will have it disabled.)
Why not just create a new custom view for the folder with the desired settings? -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "p_meyrat" wrote in message ...

Searching in customized views of outlook forms in public folde
Sue - I have the same desire. What happens is our senior management wants to
be able to do a quick search that includes searching custom fields. That would be ideal since it requires so few "clicks" for those less computer savvy. If we use an advanced search they have to have knowledge of which fields "might" contain the info they're looking for and then individually select those fields and their search criteria ... may sound absurd but senior mgmt really have difficulty with the advanced search dialogue box so if there was a way to make the simple search look in all fields, including new custom fields I've created in their custom appointment form, that would be great. Any ideas how to do this ? thanks "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Depending on your Outlook version, you may have a File | Save As command on the Advanced Find dialog.
