I always thought "newsgroups" and "frenzy" were synonymous ;)
Thanks for trying to put out this brushfire while I was away, Michael.

Well handled Russ. Thank you for that. As I stated earlier, the MS
newsgroups are in a frenzy this weekend for some reason. I totally
appreciate your professionalism in this matter.

You banished me from this thread but I'd like to reply with your
permission.
(I hadn't exactly noticed your being nice. I did notice your being very
insulting, but that of course is your prerogative).
I was indeed wrong and would have gladly admitted it. I just completely
misunderstood your question, which was how to keep Outlook 2003 from
appearing AT ALL in the System Tray, not just how to keep it from
minimizing
to the System Tray. That behavior is so thoroughly documented in Help
files
I assumed you already knew that part. Ironically, that feature was added
deliberately to Outlook 2003 in direct response to users' requests.
In the end it appears that your issue is more with Windows XP and how its
System Tray functions than with Outlook.
I am sorry for misunderstanding your question and thereby providing the
wrong information. Please try not to be too hasty when judging others.

I guess that fact that he was wrong and failed to understand the
problem before prescribing a solution is lost on you. That is the mark
of a very poor problem solver, whether we're talking Outlook or
medicine.
You should really quit while you're behind, and while I'm still being
nice.
