So, why does Outlook suck so hard.
Somehow all of my categories are a complete mess...
I have been using categories instead of contact lists b/c I can put people
into multiple categories as I add their contact info. For contact lists, it
seems I have to add the contact info, then open each of the contact lists I
would like to add them to, and then add them - Argh!
However, email people in a category proves to be a complete pain in the...
eg. figure out how to group by category, group by category, drag category
onto mail tab, ignore error message, then write email (I'm still trying to
figure out how to get them into BCC).
Anyway, categories have porven to be a complete f'up again by microsoft.
Somehow, most people are not in the categories I originally placed them in,
I'm only in one of the eight categories I have created. I did move
categories all the way to the right and off the screen b/c I was dumping
people from a category when I was trying to click on the category next to
their name to open the category - seems logical, or that I'd at least get a
'are you want to delete Joe from this category?'
I think I sorted by category or something and everyone was placed into one
(or a couple times two?? categories), don't know - but half the people in my
contacts are no longer in any category and the rest are only in one or two.
Looks like I'll have to start over with contact lists and try to determine
who should be on which list or maybe I'll go back to using my personal
computer (Mac) which actually works.
