Re: Problem With Creating Filters
Hi Gerard What is meant is that you click to right button on the mouse. It is up to you to do this left or right handed. I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. What I am trying to do is what I used to do in previous versions of TB and from what I have read in terms of replies to this post, most (if not all people can also still do), is to right-hand click on any message then go to 'Specials' which invokes another menu and from here choosing 'Create Filter' and this should load a dialog box which allows you to select what to filter on. But when I select 'Create Filter' from the menu, the above does not happen. Instead nothing at all happens. -- Cheers Steve Current version is 2.04.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
