how do i turn off that annoying menu system where it only shows a few options, then you have to click the black arrows to show all the options in the menu.

i want to see all the options all the time. bloomin M$ :mad:

actually, you wouldn't know how to add a shared inbox to my folder list. i cannot do it by right clicking 'inbox'

the only way at the moment to access it is going to File / Open / other users folder

Click on Tools>Email Accounts and select view or change email account settints and click Next.

Click the "Change" button to the right hand side, then on the next screen click "More Settings". In the new windows click on the advanced tab, and click "add..." to add additional mailboxes that you have permission to view..

You mean a calendar in a public folder or someone elses calendar in their Mailbox?

The easy way to open a calendat is to use the File>open>other users folder and select the folder and user, then it will be in the File>open folder. Not ideal...

If it is a public folder, ie for meeting rooms, as we use it, you can add it to your view within calendar iirc, it's been a while since I used office Pre 2003

I know on Office 2007 you just right click the public calendar and add to favs and it appears in the calendar section where you can view it easily.
