Default Outlook Notes Functionality

Hi,

I have Office 2007. I would like to be able to have more functionality in
the notes "post it" in outlook like bullets color and highlighting. Is there
an add- for this because I do not see it? I went to the add-in newsgroup but
did not find it. Can someone help?

Deb

If you want a more advanced note taking application, you could take a look
to OneNote. Depending on which edition of Office 2007 you have, you might
already have it installed.

No, its not (unless it was included with the office suite you purchased). If
you want sticky notes, there are a number of free (or low cost) sticky note
utilities and some do offer limited formatting, such as bullets. 3M has an
electronic version of their post it notes (free and paid versions), there is
one called Stickies that is pretty nice (I forget if it formats text) and a
dozen more.

There are some Windows Vista and Windows 7 Sidebar Gadgets which can do this
as well.
