unicode control characters are how the computer stores and displays information. Some characters cannot be displayed, because they are more or less used when programming to determine something like the end of a string of characters.
Once what was used was ANSI which had limitations that unicode has addressed.

I just knew I could do it, never really figured it was the left arrow key, but looks like I was already pressing it just to confirm I was adding the correct address.

That did do just as you said. I had never seen those choices before. Vick just sent a message saying to left click first then right click and that didn't do it but this one did. What a strange thing? Were you seeing the same thing I was before the left arrow step? Is there something odd about my outlook? Did you see that stuff about left to right reading and the funny character stuff? Thanks again. Now I can try to repopulate my contact list from my incoming mail. I really thought I was losing it.

Hit ctrl for reply. Shift tab to the To: field. Press the left arrow key once. There is no logical reason why you should have to do this, but in trying just now, this was what worked for me. Press the applications key and cursor down to "add to Outlook Contacts." Let me know if that works for you.

I don't have this option to add to contacts with the mouse right click or the application key while in the fields. Have any idea as to how I could have not configured Outlook to be this messed up? Shannon From: Bill Holton [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2013 10:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: outlook 2010 help needed You have to open the message and then go to the from field and right click. Either that or press reply, go to the to fireld and try it that way. Hope that helps.

I have a couple of questions regarding Outlook. I am not sure that this is truly a WE thing but I do have a problem that maybe one of you can help with. The IT guys didn't copy my old contacts. This is sort of a problem. According to help topics I have read on the web one can add contacts to the contacts list by right clicking on the message. I can't get my mouse to route to the list of messages. I only hear mouse cannot be routed to custom control. Using the application key is no good either. I am stumped as to how to get contacts entered other than by hand or copy paste. The status of messages is still incorrect and I don't know how to fix that either. It was suggested to re-label the graphics with the mouse and graphics editor but I again can't get the mouse to find the graphics to try this approach. It says that I have replied to a message when It was forwarded. Is there a reason I can't use the mouse to do this? Do I have some setting configured wrong? I also do not understand the message formatting as it relates to viewing in a browser. The virtualize message option is enabled but it will not open messages in IE. I have changed the hot key to ctrl shift Q for "QUICK" for my ease in remembering the command. Most of the time that command just bings at me but sometimes it will report about editing. And that is disabled. What messages can be viewed In the browser? How do you tell if a message can be viewed in the browser? I wonder if I don't have some sort of setting incorrect in my outlook set up. This is one complicated animal. Smile If anyone has a clue as to how to manage any of these problems I would appreciate the help. Shannon If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
