Disable Show in Groups for new folders

[mcfip]

When a new folder is created, I do not want Show in Groups on. I still want
the ability to to turn it on or off later as I choose.

Is there a way to configure Outlook so the initial default on a new folder
for "Show in Groups" is set to off

I am not looking for a way to globally turn off the feature for all folders.

Thanks,
Mike.

Google Groups is your friend. The answer's been posted here MANY MANY
times. See http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/grouping.htm

Brian, your link does not help me as I DO NOT want to reset everything. You
are correct that the link you sent has been posted many times in this forum
and others. And, yes, I did see those posts and yes I did check it out. I
do read a forum before I post a question.
Those post sare from people all asking the similar question: "How do I get
rid of Show Groups?" Not how do I set the default for new folders to not
set the show group toggle on.


I only want the Show in Groups toggled off as a default setting for a "New
Folder" when I create one.

I DO NOT want to change my existing folder "view" settings

I have to believe there is a particular view what is associated with a new
folder. I want to find that view and modify or create a new view and
re-associate the new view as the default when a new folder is create.

So, if anyone can shed some technical information on how this can be done,
that would be great. If the answer is "there is no way in h......, you must
reset ALL the views and start fresh", then so be it. I would appreciate a
technical answer as to why this is. I mean, isn't there a Registry setting
or a part of an XML file that can be modified to accomplish this for when I
create a "New Folder" without having to reset my entire environment?

Afterall, I like the Grouping, but I want to toggle it on when I need it.
Not have it on by default for a new folder.

And those instructions will do that.

Change them back for that one folder.

I have to believe there is a particular view what is associated with
a new folder.

For a new mail folder, "Messages" is the default view.
