Switching the folder home-page on/off in Outlook 2007

[Carolus]

Can I attach a home-page per folder in Outlook 2007 and how do I switch this
home-page on/off with a single button.

Will the browser in Outlook 2007 read .mhtml webpages?

It is for sole personal use in both private and professional live.

In professional live I am using Outlook 2003, in private live I have ordered
Outlook 2007, switching from Outlook 2003 to 2007, hoping for the best.

I organize my project- and subject related information by linking it onto a
outlook folder home-page where I collect the links during the run-time of the
subjects or projects. The folder itself contains the subject related mails
and/or tasks.

This allows fast refocussing, switching between subjects/projects when new
info becomes available or when again time is available.

I found out that:

a. the early versions of outlook did have the button for folder home-page
switch on/off. Unlucky this button was not available anymore in the newer
versions.

b. the browser in Outlook 2003 only supports only .HTM pages, not .MHT pages.

c. if I right-click a folder-home-page in the Outlook browser I can only
export the page info to Excel, not to Word.

What can I expect from Outlook 2007?

a) You can write a macro to turn an FHP on or off with the Folder.WebViewOn and .WebViewURL properties.

b) I don't know how it will handle .mht pages.

c) I imagine it depends on where you click.
