The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Windows 95/98 client, versions 4.0, 5.0 
- Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client, versions 4.0, 5.0 
- Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, versions 4.0, 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

In the Microsoft Exchange client, the column order is not retained and will be
altered after you apply a Group By condition and remove the Group By condition.

CAUSE
=====

This is by design. Microsoft Exchange does not store the view that you were
using before you did a Group By, so it can not restore the column order.

The default is to put the column that you were grouping by as the first column
with a column width of 1 character.
