clear filters in outlook 2007

iltering is different than sorting. When you sort items, you rearrange the current items in a view. For example, when you view the Inbox in single-line view, if you click the name Joanna Fuller and then click the From column header, all the messages in the Inbox will appear in alphabetical order with all the messages from Joanna Fuller at the top of your view. However, all the other messages are still viewable in the Inbox; they are now listed before and after Joanna Fuller in alphabetical order. If you scroll, you will see them all.
When you filter items, you selectively choose what items will appear in a view. The Filter dialog box offers you a variety of ways to select and organize your criteria. To open the Filter dialog box, point to Current View on the View menu, click Customize Current View, and then click Filter.

For example, you can filter the Inbox to only show only items with "Joanna Fuller" in the From box. All of the other items in the Inbox are hidden from view and can be seen by removing the view filter.

When a view filter is applied to a selected folder, the status bar displays the words Filter Applied in the lower-left corner of the screen. Multiple Filters Applied is displayed when both a view filter and a synchronization filter have been applied. A synchronization filter allows you to choose which items are downloaded or kept in your Offline Folder file (.ost). Find out more about sychronization filters.

If Microsoft Outlook Express is listed under 'Included Locations' then left-click on it and click on the 'Modify' button'. You should see an Indexed Locations popup where you can 'uncheck' the Microsoft Outlook Express: Main Identity entry and you will no longer receive the message.

Change the value to 0, OK and exit Registry Editor

How to Install IIS on Windows 7 or Vista

If you are a developer using ASP.NET, one of the first things you’ll want to install on Windows 7 or Vista is IIS (internet information server). Keep in mind that your version of Windows may not come with IIS. I’m using Windows 7 Ultimate edition.
First, go to Control Panel, and then click on Programs. You’ll see a link for “Turn Windows features on or off”

If you expand the Internet Information Services tree node, you can see that there are a lot of options beneath it. You will probably want to explore these options, because even if you click on IIS, some of the necessary options for doing development aren’t checked.

Once you’ve gone ahead and checked the items you want, and clicked OK, you’ll see this dialog for a while….

Now when you navigate in your browser to localhost, you’ll see the new default page… slick!

For example, you can filter the Inbox to only show only items with "Joanna Fuller" in the From box. All of the other items in the Inbox are hidden from view and can be seen by removing the view filter.

When a view filter is applied to a selected folder, the status bar (status bar: A horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen that displays information about the current condition of the program, such as the status of items in the window, the progress of the current task, or information about the selected item.) displays the words Filter Applied in the lower-left corner of the screen. Multiple Filters Applied is displayed when both a view filter and a synchronization filter have been applied. A synchronization filter allows you to choose which items are downloaded or kept in your Offline Folder file (.ost) (Offline Folder file: The file on your hard disk that contains offline folders. The offline folder file has an .ost extension. You can create it automatically when you set up Outlook or when you first make a folder available offline.). Find out more about sychronization filters.
