Sorting Messages
Good afternoon,
I have a colleague who has asked me to tell her how to sort messages in her inbox by various criteria. I gave ,,.her the advice to use the keytips (Alt + V followed by A B then d for Date , F for From, etc...). She reports that this sometimes does not work and I am not sure why. Can others tell me how they sort messages? Thanks for any advice you can give! Amy |

Open the message 2. Press alt followed by H, then R, then R again. 3. You will see a message something like: "Always move messages from ??" where the ?? is filled in with the address from the sender. Press enter if the information is correct. 4. Once you've pressed enter on the above #3, you will be able to choose which folder you want the messages to be saved to. The last folder used will appear, but you can either arrow up and down to find the folder you want, or use 1st letter navigation.

Is there a good solid tutorial that covers this. In fact I just thought that perhaps Brian Hartgen does cover this in his two outlook tutorials. But I'll take any suggestion. Thank you. Larry |

Office 2019 is the latest edition of Office with what is known as a perpetual license, meaning that you buy it for a one time fee, install it and it essentially works for as long as you'd care to use it. I don't know when the next edition for a perpetual license is scheduled for release but Microsoft seems to release a new edition every three years since 2007. This means that we will likely see a new edition with Office 2022.
