Outlook 2003 auto text
While building a custom toolbar to link from Outlook 2003 SP2 to preformatted
Word templates, I cannot find the AutoText command. Toolbar-Customize-Command-Autotext. This was shown in the "Quick sales letters for e-mail or postal mail". Was this disabled during a security update? Any method to re-enable it? Alternative method to merge contact information with a preformated Word letter template?

I have solved the problem.
Thanks for your help. I would like see an add-in program where, from contacts, a form letter can be launched and populated from Outlook. My problem was that I was attempting to build the custom toolbar in Outlook rather than Word. Does anyone know of an add-in that will permit such a simple, single letter, contact imerge function?

Have you looked at smart tags for inserting contact information? if you mean
a printed letter, use templates with merge fields and hyperlink it to a button. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "GWMNSB" wrote in message ...
