Insert signature file with Word as Outlook Editor

[cwjr]

I've switched my Outlook 2003 edit from the standard Outlook to Word as the email editor. When you do that, you no longer have a menu selection to insert a signature file.

I'd like to create a menu item with the VBA code behind it to insert the signature file at the cursor position in a current email message being created.

I know very little about VBA, so any code suggestions or snippets would be greatly appreciated.

You don't need VBA for this. Microsoft moved the goalposts (again) when they changed versions. Try Tools->Options->Mail Format... you'll see the signature options at the bottom.

In some versions of Outlook (when using Word) you have to create a new email, go to the Tools menu (in the email, not Outlook) and create your sig there.

Good Ol' Microsoft, intuative as ever! ;-)

Thanks for responding, comaboy.

Actually, I'm aware of the options under maill format, but they only allow you to create an auto signature that gets inserted on every email. I'm looking for a way to create a menu button to insert it only when I want to insert it. You use to be able to do that with earlier versions of Outlook.

Thanks!

New Email... Dear Jane, what ever.
