highlight first contact by default on opening?
I have exactly the same problem. Office 2003 Pro, can't get the first
contact of email, task or calendar item to be highlighted when I switch from one to another. As a result, I'm constantly forced to highlight a contact and then search for the one I really want. Was there an option or workaround for this? "James Thomas" wrote: Thanks Vince. I tried that in OL2k3 and while it's highlighted with a blue square, it's not selected (where the contact name is highlighted with a blue bar). OL2k on my desktop machine does it by default. I'm looking to get the same functionality on my laptop in OL2k3. I'd also like to upgrade my DT to OL2k3, but have resisted because of this tiny hassle. BTW, just changing the view seems to select the first contact, so changing from detailed back to standard does the same thing.

I've searched this and 3 other groups to find out how to make the first contact active (allowing me to search for a contact immediately) when opening the contacts folder. |
