Running OL2007 SP2 under Vista Home Premium SP2.

It appears that when I am replying to a plain text message, editing functions
(bold, underline, etc) are disabled.  Is there a way to enable them?

You'd need to switch to HTML format - plain text is, well, plain text. That
means no formatting.

Since when is someone stating the truth being condescending?  The simple fact
is that you cannot add formatting to plain text.  By definition, it has no
formatting.

What is the future of Outlook? Outlook I have been using Outlook for about ten years and so have a lot of data that I wish to preserve. But Microsoft seem to be abandoning Outlook (unless you use are a corporate user and have Exchange server). I am a private across a variety of devices is still important to me. This is not possible with outlook - unless you have Exchange. So my question is - do I abandon outlook amd move to Windows live mail (with its shortfalls compared to Outlook)? Or should I hang on to Outlook in the hope that Microsoft will implement cloud synchronisation for Outlook? Outlook Discussions Outlook 2003

Saving attachments to folder from public folder Outlook Hey there! I am currently working on a project that involves merging data from many into one Excel workbook for analysis. The csv files are sent to a public folder (outlook: \ Public Folders \ All Public Folders \ etc. . .) I thought the easiest way to do this would be to import the data straight from Outlook to the Excel file but after much painful testing I could not get it to main mailbox folders, not public and am unsure why. . . I have almost no experience with Outlook coding so any help is appreciated! This is the current code: If there is a instead of using a selection, that is fine too! Public Sub SaveAttachments() Dim objOL As Outlook.Application Dim objMsg As Outlook.MailItem 'Object Dim objAttachments As Outlook.Attachments Dim objSelection As Outlook.Selection Dim i As Long Dim lngCount As Long Dim strFile As String Dim strFolderpath
Looking for good email program? Outlook Hi forum members, This is the first time I have posted at this forum, and to an excellent internet / web based email. With Microsoft, it appears I have two choices, Outlook, or Outlook Express. Up front I am stating, not interested in all the bells and whistles that that exists, whether it is free, or, I have to pay for it. So, between Outlook and Outlook Express, what are the pros and cons about one versus the other? Please do not about the stuff I have stated I am not interested in. Simply want to compare Outlook vs Outlook Express's email program and how either will serve me best. My needs: 1 - I do not waste anybody's time with stuff that is not relevant to my question. Outlook or Outlook Express? For EMAIL PURPOSES. One or the other, Why vs Why Not? After
