OL98: (CW) How to Sort and Print Tracking Information

ID: Q179387

The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY

Microsoft Outlook 98 has the ability to maintain tracking information in various situations. For example, when using the voting feature, Outlook maintains a tracking page that lists the respondents and their votes. To sort or print this information, you must copy the information to another program.

NOTE: These procedures only apply if you have installed Outlook with the Corporate Workgroup/Other option. This option allows you to use Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) services. To determine your installation type, on the Help Menu click About Microsoft Outlook. In About Microsoft Outlook you should see "Corporate" if you have the Corporate Workgroup installation.


MORE INFORMATION

Outlook does not include a feature that allows for the sorting or printing of information listed on the Tracking page. The Tracking page is located in the original message, which is usually placed in the Sent Items folder.

You can copy the Tracking page information to the clipboard, and then paste it into another program that can sort and print the data.

To copy the tracking page information to another program follow these steps:

  1. Open the folder where the original sent message is located.


  2. Open the original message and click the Tracking tab.


  3. On the Edit menu, click Select All.


  4. On the Edit Menu, click Copy.


  5. Switch to the program that is to receive the data, and on the Edit menu, click Paste.

    NOTE: in the original Tracking page, there are column headings, such as "Recipient", "Message Status", and "At." These headings are not included when the tracking information is copied and pasted into another program.
