Calendar Printing Assistant 2.0 adds support for Outlook 2010

News

A new version of the Calendar Printing Assistant has been released which adds support for Outlook 2010.

To install this new version, you must first uninstall any previous version of the Calendar Printing Assistant from your system.

Sadly, nothing seems to have changed and even the application installer and the application itself are reporting still that it is meant for Outlook 2007. It does work with Outlook 2010 now though, so it really appears that they only added support for Outlook 2010 and changed nothing else in the application.

June Hotfixes for Outlook 2007

News

A new Hotfix has been released for Outlook 2007 that solves 17 issues in total.

The most notable fix is for people who see new messages being delivered directly to the Deleted Items folder instead of the Inbox folder.

This hotfix also incorporates a design change; all files that are in Outlook’s SecureTemp folder are automatically deleted when Outlook closes. While this means that you no longer would get any errors after opening over 100 attachments with the same name, it also means you no longer have the option to rescue a modified attachment you accidentally saved to this folder. Therefore I’d really recommended to force Outlook to open all attachments as Read Only or to save an attachment to disk first if you intent to modify it.

For the full list of issues solved see KB983316

In addition to this language generic hotfix, 1 language specific hotfix has been released to solve an issue with the Italian spell checker in Outlook Web Access (OWA).
KB983308 : Update for the Italian proofing tools of Office 2007 (it-it).

Since these are hotfixes and not regular updates, you won’t be offered this update via Microsoft Update but will have to request it. You can do this at the information page of each hotfix.

If you are not (seriously) effected by any of these issues, it is recommended to wait for the next Service Pack or regular Rollup Update which will most likely contain all these fixes as well.

Show sender’s e-mail address as a column in the Message List

From Address buttonIn the Message List, Outlook only shows the Display Name of the person who has sent you the email. A request heard often is to also be able to set Outlook to show the e-mail address of the sender instead of just the name.

While there is no built-in support for this in Outlook, you can display the sender’s e-mail address as a column in the message list by using a custom form configuration file.
