URGENT-Getting rid of Favorites Folder in Outlook 2003

[Pat B. Raquel]

HELP! send me info to (e-mail address removed).
I have just upgraded from Outlook 2002 to 2003/office11
and I found out that the "Used-To-Be" Outlook Shortcut
Bar has been replaced.

My concern - when I first launch Outlook 2003 - the
Favorites Folder comes on top! I need a way to hide or
even to get rid of it. What I am trying to accomplish to
bring MyShortcuts first and as a default on left pane.
Has anyone of you questioned this feature as a nuisance?

Does anyone have a resolution on it? Would appreciate any
remedies.

I rather like having the favorites appear at the top of the mail list. I
have added several folders to it so it is the first place I look for mail
folders to explore.

As for getting rid of it, just switch to a folder view rather than a mail
view. I don't believe it is going away and is a favorite (pardon the pun)
of many of the testers and now users.
