Marking an Application Item as Read

When items are first created, they are by definition unread. Unread items can be easily identified in applications because their names appear in bold. You may want to change an item from "Unread" to "Read." Not only does this change the item visually, but it also makes it possible for you to filter the list based on whether the item have been read or not.

Note: Application items that exist in a workspace before you are added are considered "read" when you are added. Items created or added after you are a workspace member will be marked "unread."

To mark an item as read:

Open the application containing the item you want mark read.
A list of your items displays. Unread items appear in Bold text.
Only items that are unread can be changed to read.
Select the item(s) you want to mark as read.
From the Checked Item Actions list, select Mark as Read.
