how do i create custom stationary in outlook 2007

[CassC]

I want to create custom stationary in outlook 2007, but I can't figure out
how that can be done. I can spend money I buy things, but I want it to be
tailored to me and my personality. How can I do that?

From Outlook Help,

Note Outlook stationery or themes cannot be customized.

You could design it in Outlook 2007 and save as HTML or a template. Or
create/edit the HTML outside of outlook then place it in the stationery
folder or use file, insert, as text to insert it into a message.

Just don't get too fancy with the stationery if you use an editor - outlook
may not be able to use/display many of the features.

In xp, save the html to C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application
Data\Microsoft\Stationery. (Vistas path is similar, under Users directory.)
You can then browse it using Actions, Send mail using more stationery or set
it as your default stationery (tools, options, mail format, stationery)

Note that if you use Outlook standalone instead of the office suite, your
stationery options are more limited.

Stationery can always be edited - its only HTML. Outlook no longer has the
Save as stationery menu, but that just pointed it to the Stationery folder.

Is that from Outlook installed as part of an office suite or standalone?
Outlook 2007 standalone does lack the ability to set themes and stationery
as default, but they can still be used.

That just means there is no simple way within the outlook interface to edit
stationery. It doesn't mean someone can't create custom stationery or use
other tools to edit the html used for stationery.
