Moving or copying items

Outlook lets you move or copy items between folders. For some types of items, only moving, not copying, is allowed. To move or copy one or more items, you must first select them, as follows:

  • To select a single item, click it.
  • To select multiple contiguous items, click the first item and then hold down the Shift key and click the last item.
  • To select multiple noncontiguous items, click the first item and then hold down the Ctrl key and click each additional item.
  • To select all items in the folder, press Ctrl+A. You can then deselect individual items with Shift+click.
  • To deselect multiple items, release any key and click any nonselected item.

Now you can move or copy the selected items in one of several ways:

  • Drag the item or group of items to the destination folder and drop.
  • Choose Cut (to move) or Copy from the Edit menu. Then, open the destination folder and choose Paste from the Edit menu.
  • Choose Move to Folder from the Edit menu. Outlook opens the Move Items dialog box, shown in Figure 27-36. Select the destination folder from the list and then click OK. You can also click the New button in this dialog box to create a new folder.
