I sadly need to use Microsoft Outlook at work, which is substantially inferior to my favourite email client (mutt) and has awful search and threading. To improve the search on it, I normally find stuff by typing subject:(something) into the top bar. I realised only yesterday I could do this with a macro. It’s amazing now. I just copy a word I want to search for in the subject, click on the top bar, and press the magic button!
Actually, writing this out, I realise it doesn’t even hit enter afterwards, and there’s probably a ‘search’ shortcut in outlook that I could press first. Hmmmmm!
Anyway, thought I’d share how long I haven’t used a great feature for.
. Macros are a really everyday useful tool and they come in handy. I use them a lot, and I think that I can’t live without them now.
