Outlook 2007 Autocorrect with formatted text

[CO_Deeno]

I need to know how to enable Outlook to replace autocorrect entries with
formatted text. In Word 2007, its as simple as clicking the radio button to
enable it. In Outlook however, not so much.

Here is what I am trying to accomplish -- this worked two weeks ago before
my hard drive died, however, I can't remember how to recreate it.

I enter my initials and autocorrect formats a signature with contact
information. The path, Tools, Options, Spelling, Spelling, Spelling and
Autocorrect Options, Autocorrect Options --- however, the "Formatted text"
radio button is grayed out. I was able to do this in Word without an issue.

I have tried changing my mail format between HTML and Rich Text without
success.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

You need to go there from the message.

Enter the text in a new message.
Select the formatted text
Go to the office icon and choose Editor options
Now go to the autocorrect dialog (under proofing)
