Moving Multiple Items to File System

[Yvonne]

Within Outlook 2000 you were able to create a shortcut to a folder on the
file system and you were able to select multiple items and drag and drop them
in the folder. Can this be done in Outlook 2003?

No, the ability to browse the local file system was removed as a security concern.

You can create a shortcut to a folder in the Shortcuts Navigation but you
cannot directly drag & drop items on it to move it to that folder. Open the
folder first.
