When I want to reply to emails in outlook a red x appears in the message body.
What is this for?
I am unable to write any text in the message body and the original message
does not appear.

Your question may be better answered in an Outlook newsgroup which is
appropriate to your problem. This newsgroup is dedicated to the Microsoft
Access database product. The Microsoft website is not all that clear and may
have misdirected you.

Hi, Liz.

body.

The red X signifies an image file that isn't available, generally because
its link points to a file on the Internet and is being blocked by Outlook to
prevent the originator from determining whether or not the recipient of the
E-mail has received the message (a spammer's trick to add to or confirm
E-mail addresses on their lists).

That said, this newsgroup is dedicated to Microsoft Access databases, a
product of Microsoft Office, and questions here should relate to that topic
for the quickest and most reliable answers.
