Had an issue yesterday where we wanted to remove some entires from Outlooks location list. #

Huh? When you book an appointment in Microsoft Outlooks calendar you can specify a location. If ACT! by Sage has a Resource that is designated as a location, when ACT! sync’s with Outlook that location list gets filled in. #

So, we wanted to edit that list in Outlook. Well, you can’t. #

But you can clear the list completely, which for our purpose suited us fine, it’ll get repopulated with the correct values. #

Thus, without further ado, here is how you do this: #

Open up Regedit and remove the value from this key: #

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences\LocationMRU

Note that you will need to replace the version number for your version of Microsoft Office (14.0 = MSO2010, 12.0 = MSO2007). #
