"It looks like this is a bug in Outlook.

If you right click on the columns and click ""Customise current view"" you can then choose the top option which is fields.

On the right hand side, there is a item called ""Flag Status"".

I have tried moving it a few times, and whatever I choose, it stays as the last column, even if when I go back to the ""show fields"" screen, it is still first.

I have tried a few other methods, but this looks like a bug."

I managed to delete the "Flag Status", by right clicking and choosing "Remove this Column". However I was unable to drag it back off from the "Field Chooser" window. The only way of retriving this column was to reset the view to its original settings, by selecting View, Current View, Customize Current View, Reset Current View, and then reajusting if necessary the view to your liking.
