Yosemite Outlook 2011 Search results defaults to last emails first

Don't know if anyone finds this an issue but I rely on search in emails a lot. So now with either the yosemite change or the latest update to outlook, when performing a search, rather than showing the latest results on top and keeping the focus there while other results pile up underneath, it still shows the latest on top but forces the cursor/view down to the results that are displaying below.  So you can't just open the recent ones and ignore the rest, you have to wait until it loads everything.

This is pretty time consuming to wait for all these results to display and then have to scroll up to the latest at the top again.

Anyone have a workaround / solution to this?

thanks
