how to change the number of lines shown in a task with autopreview

[yoyomeltz]

hello and thanks for reading this.
for each task, when using auto-preview, outlook only shows the first three
lines of the task.
how can i tweak it to show all the lines?
yes, i know about the reading pane but it does not suit my particular needs.
i have tried to customize the view and could not. i also checked with mskb
and slipstick.com and others but no answers so i am posint this.
thanks so much,
dave

AutoPreview is limited to showing the first three lines. There is no option to change this.

sue,
thanks but how can you be so sure? i was not asking about an option but
someway to do it. do you know for sure that there is not some registry
setting?
thanks much in any event for your valuable time.

Because I've made it my business for the past 8 1/2 years to try to understand how Outlook works and its limitations.
