1. Open the view whose display you want to modify.

2. From the menu, choose View - Customize This View.

3. Do any of the following in the "Customize View" dialog box to customize columns:

• Select the names of columns you want to display in the view by checking the check boxes to the left of the column names in the Visible column.
• (Optional) To see the Untitled columns in the list of columns to customize, select "Show all." Selecting or deselecting "Show all" causes any customizations you may have set for the view to be lost. Note the following:
  
  If "Show all" is not selected, Untitled visible columns move with their adjacent column. For example, in your Inbox the Subject column is preceded by an Untitled column, which displays a paperclip icon to indicate there is an attachment in a mail message.
  
  If "Show all" is not selected, the icon column is not listed in the list of columns you can customize, but if you move the Subject column the icon column moves with it.
  
  If "Show all" is selected, you can move the Untitled columns independently of the titled columns.
  
• Select the name of a column you want to move. Then click "Move Up" or "Move Down" to reorder the columns (moving up positions the column to the left, and moving down positions the column to the right). Note that you can also reorder columns without opening the "Customize View" dialog box. Simply click a column heading, and then drag and drop it to the desired position.
• Select the name of a column you want to change the default sorting order for. Then select one of the following sort options from the Selected Column Sort list:
  "Ascending" to have documents sort in increasing order -- the most recent documents appear at the bottom of the column.
  "Descending" to have documents sort in decreasing order -- the most recent documents appear at the top of the column.
  "None" to not allow column sorting.
• (Calendar view only) Check "Hide columns in this format only" to have your selections apply only in the current format. For example, in the Calendar view, if you open this dialog box while viewing the One-week format, uncheck "End," and then select the "Hide columns" option, an end-time will not appear for entries when you view the One-week format. However, it will appear in the other Calendar formats.
• Select the name of a column to change the number in the "Selected Column" Width field to increase or decrease the column width.

• Specify how much vertical space there should be between rows in the "Row spacing" field under "Entire View." The default is single-spaced rows.
• Specify how many lines a column can contain in the "Lines per row" field under "Entire View." Increase this value if you are using a new line to separate multiple values in a view.
• Specify if you want to have rows size according to the content within them by selecting "Shrink rows to content."

Note To restore the original values in a view, open the "Customize View" dialog box (choose View - Customize This View) and click Defaults.
