Here is the answer to your question. It involves Quick Parts and F3:

Ben-

How can i get "quick parts" to be available in the Outlook 2007 fields
"To...", "Cc..., or most importantly "Subject:" Insert Quick Parts is greyed
out when the cursor is in one of those fields. Works fine in the body of the
e-mail. I need it to work in the Subject: field.

I don't believe it will work in any of those fields.

Sigh. I was afraid of that. How about Outlook 2010?
