How do I view the ruler in an Outlook message and/or insert tabs?
I'm attempting to set tabs in an Outlook message. I'm unable to find how to
view the ruler in order to set the tabs. I believe it used to be in the View drop down menu, but it's no longer there. |

Not an Outlook issue since the ruler is a feature of Word. Outlook's embedded new-mail editor does not have a ruler. Word has a ruler. To use Word, you need to select Word as the new-mail editor (in Outlook 2007, you're stuck using Word 2007). In Word's e-mail template, the View - Ruler menu entry is disabled until you change focus to the body of the e-mail (since the ruler has no meaning elsewhere). Mentioning WHICH version of Outlook that you use can let respondents help you that know or use that particular version. |

The ruler is activated by clicking the "View ruler" button in the upper
right corner of the message pane. Juli wrote: I'm attempting to set tabs in an Outlook message. I'm unable to find how to view the ruler in order to set the tabs. I believe it used to be in the View drop down menu, but it's no longer there. |

Yep, because in Outlook 2007 you are using (and stuck with using) *WORD* as the new-mail editor. We'll have to wait until the OP responds to find out which version Outlook that THEY use. |
