Outlook 2010 "Sent Items" folder is empty

I have a PC running Windows 7 Professional with Office 2010
the PC is a standalone PC in a workgroup (not in a domain including Exchange)
I can send and receive email with no issues

Every time I send an email, it sends perfectly fine and is received but it never shows up in the "Sent Items" folder

When I look at the properties of the "Sent Items" folder, it shows 1.8GB's of content

I tried outlook.exe /resetnavpane - nothing
I tried outlook.exe /safe - nothing

It’s as if all the emails are hidden
I tried playing around with “showing number of items” but no luck

the only thing I found interesting by comparing this PC's Outlook "Sent Items" folder with my Outlook 2010, I found the "To" field was missing and it had a "From" field. I removed the From and added the "To" but no luck

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I did a lot of Google searches to no avail

Reset view should resolve this as Kostasp mentioned, I had to do this a few weeks ago in fact. :)

It appears that there may several ways to reset the view options as Kostasp and Jazzyjoop mentioned.

I do recall "Right-Clicking" in the tool bar (that displays To, Subject, Sent) and choosing view settings > Reset Current View  - and it not working
I still would like to award the points as mentioned above
Thanks for everyone's help
