OL2001: You Cannot Use Custom Views with Outlook for Windows (288505)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Outlook 2001 for Mac
  • Microsoft Outlook 2000
  • Microsoft Outlook 98
  • Microsoft Outlook 97

This article was previously published under Q288505

SYMPTOMS

If you use Outlook 2001 for Mac to create custom views, the view is not available if you log on to the same Microsoft Exchange Server by using Microsoft Outlook for Windows.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the custom view architecture that is used on Outlook 2001 for Mac is different from the one that is used to create custom views on an Outlook for Windows client.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, you must create the custom views separately for each specific platform version of Microsoft Outlook.
