Outlook - Contacts Opening Expanded

Asked By pspannuth
04-Feb-10 10:10 AM
I have Office 2007 and recently updated to Windows 7.  I use Outlook for
business.  I have over 2000 contacts and I view them in category mode.  I
have about 12 categories and when I had Office 2003 when I would open my
contacts they would open with the categories all collapsed.  When I had XP
and now with Windows 7 with Office 2007, when I open my contacts, they
sometimes (about 60% of the time) open with all of the categories expanded.
Is there a way to change a setting to make sure that they always open
collapsed instead of expanded?  I always collapse the groups before I exit
contacts.

Outlook should remember that when it closes.  Make sure it is closing using
the Processes tab of the Task Manager.

How do I make sure that it is closing using the Processes tab of the Task
Manager?  I did not have this problem with Office 2003 and XL.

Open the Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Escape), select the Processes tab and make
sure OUTLOOK.EXE does not appear in the list.  That way you know it closed.

Brian,
This also happens when I do not exit Outlook, but also when I go from
contacts to calendar, email, or any other function.  Again, this did not
happen when I used 2003 with XP.  Is there a setting that I can get to that
will allow me to set this to open the contacts collapsed every time?

Permanent problems with MS Outlook 2007 / 2003 since Feb 2010 Outlook Hi. Since the February 2010 I am experiencing permanent problems with MS Outlook 2007 - every 20-30 minutes it stops to work with message this program. Quit one of more programs, and then try again". When I tell "stops to work" I mean - Outlook program is actually running but it cannot do anything - nor receive emails, nor look emails or folders, so - it is completely nonoperational. The only way to "cure" it - close Outlook, wait 2-3 min (if not disappeared from memory kill it using TaskMgr), start Outlook
Looking for good email program? Outlook Hi forum members, This is the first time I have posted at this forum, and to an excellent internet / web based email. With Microsoft, it appears I have two choices, Outlook, or Outlook Express. Up front I am stating, not interested in all the bells and whistles that that exists, whether it is free, or, I have to pay for it. So, between Outlook and Outlook Express, what are the pros and cons about one versus the other? Please do not about the stuff I have stated I am not interested in. Simply want to compare Outlook vs Outlook Express's email program and how either will serve me best. My needs: 1 - I do not waste anybody's time with stuff that is not relevant to my question. Outlook or Outlook Express? For EMAIL PURPOSES. One or the other, Why vs Why Not? After
