This is an odd one :-)
Every time I open a message in Outlook, it defaults to the "File" tab, as opposed to the "Message" tab. If I do something with it, eg add a category, it reverts back to the "File" tab again.
This doesn't sound much, but means that everything I do takes 2-3 clicks, rather than just one. With a lot of emails, this becomes a real chore!
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Miles

Miles, I think you have MS Outlook 2010? This may be the solution:
In MS Outlook 2010 - In the upper right hand corner next to the ? there is a small caret (˄ or ˅). If you click on it - it re-opens the ribbon, returning Outlook to its normal state, fixing the issue.
Note that the small caret you should click is in the message window itself, not the main Outlook window

Miles, So glad the fix worked. I have been sitting here for a day wondering what this means "Got it in one" So even though I hate to admit it, I had to look it up. Thank heavens for Google search!
got it in one! something that you say when someone has guessed something correctly.

I believe that's evidence of a generation gap? :-)

OK for you, Jack! Did you know what "it" meant?

Nope :-) But there's a lot I'm missing these days.
