Exposing SCL

[Franz Leu]

Hi

I tried to expose SCL in OL2007 using the following:
http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2004/05/26/142607.aspx

Somehow, I can not add/move the Form from the personal container to the
right in 6. of the instructions.

It works with another Form like this:
http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2005/10/13/412487.aspx

Any ideas why the SCL cannot be added?
Thanks
Franz

See if the instructions here are easier to follow:

or remove the form and try republishing it again.

Not an answer to your question. Just want to say that exposing SCL trick
doesn't work with OL2007. I've seen posts asking the same question, why SCL
values are not visible when using OL2007.

Exactly the same instruction .....

That might be the issue. I had it working back on OL2003.

Thank

If you have one on the right called Messages, remove it and then SCL should
be available (and show the SCL #)

SCL field is available. I can drag/drop the field to my Inbox (view). The
problem is it's all blank if I use OL2007 to view it. I can see the values
if I use OL2003/2002 or OWA.

Some have reported that it works fine with OL2007. I can't verify that
though because I have never got it to work properly with OL2007.

It works fine (for me) with 2007. Are you using cached mode? Have you tried
resetting the view and adding the field back?

Are you using cached mode?

No difference with cached mode enabled/disabled

Have you tried resetting the view and adding the field back?

Doesn't help either. I gave up long ago.

That was it. Thanks
Except for that it's blank. It does not show any values.

 

[John]

Another proof that exposing SCL trick doesn't work for some of us. I'd love
to know what causes the values to fail to show up.

It did work in OL2003 and it does not in OL2007.

It bugs me that no one has figured out why it doesn't work for some people.

I too ran into the problem with Outlook 2007 SP1 with a backend of SBS2003
R2. Tried everything in every way, but always blank. Knowing when I was
beaten, I tried the OTHER way of doing it, the easier more versatile way, and
that worked, ShowSCL:
