Template problem using Word 03 as editor

[Paul B]

Hi,

I'm just trying out using Outlook, with Word as the Rich Text
editor. It's very nice having my macros and customized menus at
hand.

But I've been unable to figure out how to specify the default
paragraph style. It keeps opening to Normal. There's a place in
Outlook to spec background and font, but not Style.

I'd like to get outgoing mail as simple and unbloated as
possible. EMAIL.DOT doesn't seem to affect this; maybe that's
only for when using Outlook as editor. I've saved a custom Form,
but that doesn't affect the default mail stationary, so I'm stuck
at this point.

Thanks,
p.

Looks like I solved this, merely by speccing Text Body in
normal.dot. I thought that was already the case, but it was not.
