Is there anyway that a Quick Parts message/template can be automatically created for others?

Hello, when I used quickparts everything seems to work good especially the functionality. The only problem I am having is that when you go to Insert > QuickParts and when I try to select a box how come I cant see the writing on them its like all the letters are jumbled up. How do I fix this issue anyone can please help me? It puts it in the email just fine only when you trying to scroll through them you cant see the text. Please help!

There are a number of blogs running about the disappearing Quick Parts. Has anybody got a satisfactory answer to resolve this problem? The answer is not to delete or rename "Normal"!

Now that we can only insert one signature in an Outlook doc, I have created a bunch of Quick Parts that I use in lieu of typing repetitively. The Quick Parts list is getting a little unwieldy. Is there a way to view just the Quick Part names without seeing the actual text inside the little boxes?

Hi there! Just adore QuickParts. Does that mean I´m a rather lazy guy :-)? How to solve the following; when I add tables to QuickParts, it does show them in e.g. the meeting request, however ... : apparently the receiver of the message get´s the information which was put into the table, the table itself is gone! By consequence; everything´s gone scrambled! Tx for your feedback!

Werner.

Hi, Catrina, I tried your sugegstion, but ended up with no NormalEmail.dotm file and Outlook is not creating another one. Two questions: 1. When you say reboot, do you mean restart or Shut Down first?

2. What did you remane the file NormalEmail.dotm to? Thanks, Den DiMarco

Catrina, I found NormalEmail.dotm another way. Not sure why the standard search didn't work. Anyway, I found it interesting that the last modifed date was 3/22/2009 which is about the time it stopped working. Any idea why it became corrupted? (Power outage, maybe while the file was open?) What's to stop it from becoming corrupted again? Anyway, I'll try your suggestion and hope for the best! Thanks, Den DiMarco

Hi, Catrina, The only place I can find NormalEmail.dotm is in a path to which I copies old files from my XP machine. That path is C:\OldFiles\Documents and Settings\Den DiMarco\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates. Are you sure it's not called somehting else? Thanks, Den DiMarco

I have a question. I know that when printing Outlook defaults to a memo style. How do I edit it that and then change it when printing. I need to have the e-mail look like a business letter. Thank you Charles Volz
