Confirm delete or change for Contacts
I am accidentally making changes to Contacts as I scoll throught the list
trying to find a specific contact. I do not know these changes are being made because there is no "confirm" window or anything. If any contact line is highlighted, anything you type in will be added to that field. I am so fast at typing that I frequently do not watch the screen. You can also do right-click and select delete and the contact goes away without any "are you sure" pop-up first. (I go to Deleted Items and get it back if it was a mistake.) When I actually close Outlook, I get the "are you sure you want to delete the items in the Deleted Items folder? yes/no". Is there any way I can see what's about to get deleted before I say "yes" to that? How would I see stuff that was merely changed and not deleted (like when I accidentally type in a field in Contacts and don't realize it)? Would changes show up on a "about to be deleted" list of any kind? Is there ANY way to write-protect the contacts file at all? I am not on Exchange and I know there is the IRM thing if you are on Exchange. I'm a home office. My husband fat-fingers a lot of stuff and I need a pop-up window to help him help himself from making changes to our Contacts folder. |
