Update from 2003 outlook to 2007 Cannot sort contacts alphabetically
Recently updated our company to Office 2007.
When in the plane field I have some users not able to sort their emails alphabetically by stroking a key. Example: I arrange my emails by Date > Then I click in the plane and I want to navigate to say an email from Mary.Jame I press M on my keyboard and it shoots me to all the emails from contacts name starting with M untill I find the one I need. This works perfect in Outlook 2003. Since updated to 2007 several users and myself have this issue. It seems like sometimes it works. But only for a couple key strokes then it stops. Any info would be Helpful. Already fully updated with MS Updates. |

If you want to jump to e-mails by letter you need to change the "Arrange By" to "From". Then it will work.

Dunno what to tell you. In Office 2010 if you want to just type letters and have it jump to a sender you have to have it arranged by From.
The other thing you could do is click in the Search box and start typing the name there. It would then dynamically filter the list to show you matching messages. Not quite as accurate, since it won't automatically be limited to From (though you could click "From:" on the Search Tools group) but it'll work. |

When I do it, in Outlook 2010, sorted by date, pressing the letters does nothing. If I Arrange by From then pressing the letters does exactly what you're asking for. Now if I click in the Search field and start typing letters it certainly filters down the view to show me the senders with those letters. |

Do you have instant search enabled on your machine?

Do you have "Search Inbox" above the message list in your Inbox? If you click there and start typing does it return search results?
