Outlook 2000 From Field (W2K)

[jumbotron]

Does anyone know how to make the From field show up when composing a message in Outlook 2000? I can do it easily in outlook 2002/xp.

[DanK]

Open new mail window, click view>from field

That doesn't work in my Outlook 2000 setup for internet only mail.

Here is a possible solution:

1. Tools>Form>Design a form
2. Then select 'Inbox' from the 'look-in drop down list'.
3. Click on 'Open'.
4. Drag the 'From' field from the dialog to the form.
5. Save the form.
6. Open the new form (File>New>Choose form) and open the form from where you saved it earlier and the 'From' field will be displayed.

Hope this helps...

As far as I know, if there's only one account setup, it can only be FROM ONE person, so you dont get the option to see or change who it comes from. If you make another Outlook Email Account, then there is the possibility of creating a message and sending from either 1 of 2 email accounts. That's when you'll get the FROM field to be shown I beleive.
