Select a Signature Icon

[Don]

In Outlook 2003, I used to have an icon on a menu bar to select and
insert one of the signatures that I had set up. I had to reinstall
Outlook the other day and can no longer find any way to put the icon
back on the menu.

It was probably a tip I read somewhere but I have searched in vain for
days. What I was able to do was have a combo box drop down on my email
compose page that listed all signatures when clicked. If you double
clicked on a signature, it inserted it. I know it was not an add-in
and I did not write code to do it.

I just use Insert, signature and choose from the list. But if you want the
icon, open a new message, right click on the toolbar, customize, Insert menu,
drag the Signature icon to the formatting toolbar. Make sure you are showing
the formatting toolbar.

I don't find a signature option under the Insert menu item. I tried
customizing and can't find a signature icon under any menu item.
Anyone have any ideas?

And you won't if you're using Word as your mail editor. Instead, you use
the combo box you describe in your original post. The signature button
appears when you are using the built-in Outlook editor.

Thank you. That was the trick. When I "fixed" Outloook, it must have
selected Word and the editor. I'm happy now.
