A customer asked me a really simple questions. how can i have all my fields look the same in my inbox ( and subfolders ) without going to each one and changing it?
I am not an outlook user and i can't figure it out. I played with views and fields selection but i can't save once for all folders - i have to select it for every folder. any suggestions?

This is the easiest way I've found to do this:
Firstly ensure that you can see the "Advanced Toolbar" in Outlook. Now go to a folder, for sake of argument "Inbox" and set all the options as you'd like them (filters, sort by, column widths etc). Nowsimply highlight the view in the Outlook Advance Toolbar (view ahould be "Messages" by default) and hit return.
This will update the "Messages" view and this will then automcatically be applied to all other folders based on that view, which as longas you haven't changed any default settings, will be all of them...
