A toolbar for categories

Postby VGltU2hpZWxkcw » Sat, 08 Nov 2008 19:41:03 GMT

I use categories for sorting my email as opposed to folders and I would like 
to create a toolbar which consists of the categories I have created. I know 
on the standard toolbar there is the categories button, but what I would 
really like is a toolbar which simply contains an expanded version of all the 
categories.
Is this something that is possible?
Thanks.

The Addin, Robert mentioned, adds a sidebar to your Outlook, which displays
all of your categories. You can filter the list so that it shows only some
of your categories, and the list can be visible all the time. It does what
you're looking as you can assign any category with only one click.

However, the alternative is to code that yourself. You can create macros in
VBA, customize your toolbar, and "drag the macro" to the toolbar. If you're
familar with VBA that's no big issue.
