How to insert a signature in Outlook 2003 Professional

S

Sue Heap

In outlook 2003 standard you can add a signature via opening a new mail and
selecting Insert - Signature and your signatures are listed.

On Outlook 2003 Professional this option has disappeared & there doesnt seem
to be an option to add this on, its not listed under Add/remove buttons or
customise.
The only option available is to have it inserted all the time.

Does anybody know where this option can be added on in Professional ?

Are you using word as your editor? if so, right click on the sig to see the
other sigs.

Thanks for your note, however this means you have to have a signature set all
the time, I was really looking for the option to insert it if your signatures
were set to default of None & you wanted to insert one, rather than having to
have a signature set all the time & then right clicking to select a different
one.

Thanks for the help though.

You can use Autotext or create a blank signature (I use -- and a space below
it for my blank sig so I can see where it begins) and have it applied all
the time. When you want to use a sig, right click and choose another...

You can also Ctrl+A to select all before typing new messages if you don't
want a sig.... with replies, you need to select the sig and delete (which I
do sometimes too).
