Am I missing something here? I don't seem to be able to sort my Search
Folders in Outlook 2003.
 
You can't sort them, exactly.  But you can rename them.  If you want to
place them in a certain order rename them:

1. [name]
2. [name]
3. [name]

The folders with numbers will sort to the top and in numerical order.

Thanks, that worked. (Kinda lame that it can't sort without numbers
though, arghh).
 
It just sorts them alphabetically. Outlook 2010 does the same thing. The
ones I use most often I just add to my Favorite Folders anyhow so it doesn't
bother me much.

How did you want to sort them? They should be sorted alphabetically under
Search folders. If you add them to the Favorites list they will be in the
order you place them. Drag them to rearrange.
