Replace the "Type a question for help" with a Global Email Search

W

wpdavenport

I am always looking for differnt things in my emails. It would be more
helpful if the help search at the top right hand corner was a Search engine
for the ENTIRE program for Outlook.

So it would search Contacts, Emails, Calendar, etc. AND sort them according
to their Folder location or classification. Much like the way Vista
orgainizes MP3, movies and Word Documents when you do a system search for
files.

Maybe you can clarify why you'd want to replace the Help feature?

The search box for searching your email is right above the list of email items.

No, it won't. Help on the application or searching your items are completely
different things. You don't want these search results mingled with each
other. You can use the Search bar above your folderlist to do a global
Outlook search (in your items).
