Inserting standard text into mails
I use Word when creating my emails.
When answering customers mail I normally use some standard text that can be from 5 to 10 lines long. It includes links på webbpages and other information that suit this special customer. What I need to know is how to create the (different) standard texts and easily be able to chose and include one (or more) of them in my mail. -- To bean or not to bean, that's the question. |

Inserting standard text into mails
Type your blurb in word and format and highlight. Goto Tools,
Autocorrect,AutoText Tab and name it. In a new email type the name you created and you should see the first part of your autotext appear in a box - this shows you that you can click on enter to make it appear. Only handy if you can still remember what the blurb is called though so make it something memorable! "Mr Bean-Bag" wrote: I use Word when creating my emails.

Also, if you apply the same paragraph style to all the blurbs before you
make them into AutoText entries (and the style can be one that you make up yourself, with the same formatting as Normal style), you can then make an AutoTextList field. That lets you choose the one you want from a dropdown menu. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/AutoTextList.htm for instructions. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
