How can i add a new column to outlook that i can make entries in?

[eagle]

I receive a lot of email with the same subject info. I want to add a column
to Outlook 2003 so i can descrbe the email. Or is there a way to edit the
subject line in Outlook after receipt? I use a two part view so i can read
the email once highlighted. The email list is long and i need a quick way to
find what the emaill is without reading every email. Any suggestions?

Create a new named table view that has in-cell editing turned on. View | Arrange By | Current View | Define Views.

I may not have fully understood your suggestion. It seems that there are a
lot of steps. I have actually been forwarding the email to myself and adding
the subject info that i need.

Yes, if you want to be able to type in the view, you actually have to take some steps to create a view that supports that. Start by creating the view, then add the fields you want to see, then turn on in-cell editing in the Other Settings dialog.
