EMAIL SIGNATURE

[William]

Outlook 03/XP
email format: HMTL
Microsoft Office Word 2003 in use for email editing

I have 5 different email signatures, depending on whether the email is
formal or not, personal or business, etc. I do not want to set any of them
up as auto-signatures since the purpose of my emails and email replys change
frequently. I can't find a quick way to manually insert the appropriate
signature.

MO Help advises to "click where you want to insert the signature," and then
Insert/Autotext/Signature. But none of my 5 signatures appears when I follow
that path.

Ideas? Thanks . . .

In the open email, can you not click on Insert > Signature and choose it from
there?

Create a blank signature and set that as the default. Signature switching
will now work.

Kathleen – No. I do not have the “Signature†option after I bring up the
“Insert†menu. I have to point to “Autotext†first. Then, after pointing to
signature, I only see my full name.

Robert – I created the blank signature, set it as default for outgoing.
Same result (see not to K. above)

Kathleen – No. I do not have the “Signature†option after I bring up the
“Insert†menu. I have to point to “Autotext†first. Then, after pointing to
signature, I only see my full name.

Assign that blank signature to an account and then try it again.

Milly, I'm not sure I can assign a signature to any other account. I to
tools/options/mail format. There is a window with the label, "Select
signatures for an account," but there is only one option in that window:
"Microsoft Exchange Server." Nothing else is available when clicking on the
arrow to make the drop down menu visible (I am on a network).

Ideas?

You only have 1 account? Then assign the blank signature to it as the
default. Right click in the signature area to select a different signature.
You can add a single dot to the blank signature if you have issues finding
the signature area.
