Most of you know how to sort e-mail messages in MS Outlook, right? You know, you do it by clicking on the column heading of the field you want to use as the sort criteria.

An up arrow sorts the messages in ascending order and a down arrow sorts in descending order, based on the data in the column you chose.

But have you ever wished there was a way to sort by two criteria instead of just one?

Maybe you receive a lot of messages from the same person and you want them sorted not only by who viagra in the uk sent it, but also by when it was received. That way, you can quickly find the newest message. If you've tried to do that before, you've probably clicked on the From column heading and then clicked on the Received column heading, only to be disappointed that it doesn't allow for a two column sort. Or, does it?!

Actually, Outlook will allow for a multiple column sort if you know about the magic key. (Okay, so it's not magic, but when you get one of these programs to easily cooperate, it sometimes feels that way!)

What you're looking for is the Shift key.

To do a multiple column sort of your messages in Outlook, click first on the column heading of the primary sort criteria. (Double click if you need to switch between ascending and descending).

Now, hold down the Shift key and click on the column heading of your secondary sort criteria. (Clicking multiple times will switch the sort order back and forth).

Voila. You can now sort a little bit of this and a little bit of that with just a little help from the Shift key!
