Show or hide views in the Navigation Pane

Applies to: Microsoft Office Outlook 2003

In the Contacts, Tasks, Notes, and Journal panes, you can easily switch views by clicking a different view in the views displayed under Current View. To turn on or off Current View, follow the procedure below.

On the View menu, point to Arrange By, and then click Show Views in Navigation Pane.

Notes

This change effects only the active pane, such as Mail or Calendar, in the Navigation Pane (Navigation Pane: The column on the left side of the Outlook window that includes panes such as Shortcuts or Mail and the shortcuts or folders within each pane. Click a folder to show the items in the folder.). If you want to show or hide views in all the panes in the Navigation Pane, you must do this for each individual pane.
You cannot rearrange the panes. For example, Favorite Folders is available only in the Mail pane and cannot be removed, hidden, or resized. It also cannot be displayed in other panes, such as Folder List.
