Well, you could click on it to select it (which starts it building), then
move the mouse to the Edit menu, click on that, move the mouse down the menu
to "Edit Custom View" and click on that. But why would you want to do all
that? Perhaps you need a two-button mouse? You can just right-click it at
any time to do the same as control-click - no mouse software even needed.

You could go to System Preferences/Keyboard & Mouse/Keyboard Shortcuts, and
enter a new Entourage shortcut for "Edit Custom View". Then you could just
select the Custom View and use the keyboard shortcut. It still seems more
bother than a one-handed right-click to me.

You can't edit a custom view without first selecting it, if that's what you
were wondering.

In the old 3-pane view (Preview Pane below), sort by "Status" column (*).
'Edited" seems to come between 'replied to' and 'forwarded'.

In new 3-column view, Arrange by Message Status.


But it looks like "Replied To" takes precedence over "Edited", so that's not
very good.

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - **2004**, X
