Auto Fill Subject Line

[Richard Wagstaff]

Hi,

Being a mail order company we need to dend out a copy invoice to our
customers once the order is shipped. I can see how write a simple macro
that says something like "thanks for your order, it's on it's way", but I'm
struggling for a way to auto-fill the subject line with something like "Your
order has shipped" . Perhaps a template or a macro?

Can any kind soul help point me in the right direction?

Richard

You can create a custom hyperlink button for this and type as address
"mailto:" (without quotes) and fill in the default subject.

Many thanks Roady - and thank you for the link, that is a very useful
resourse I didn't know about.

Just a thought...... Would you know if this is possible?

1. Email comes in to our inbox (via Exchange 2003)
2. We hit "reply"
3. Subject is automatically changed from "Re: Order" to "Your order has been
Dispatched"
4. The original message text is deleted and replaced with something like
"Invoice attached"

I suspect I'm being a little optimistic here, as I have no knowledge of
Visual Basic!
