email signature

[Anonymous]

I'm using Outlook 2003 with Word as the email editor. I'm looking for a
convenient way to insert signatures in emails and the only way I've found is
so clunky I can't believe this is what we're expected to do. With a message
open I select Options, Email signature and get a list of the email
signatures I've created. But selecting one doesn't allow me to click
anything that inserts it in my message. Instead, after I select the proper
item, the text of the email signature appears in a window, and I have to
move my cursor into that window and select the text of the signature (can't
use control-A to select it all, so I have to move my cursor to the
beginning, then the end), then press control-C to copy, then close out of
that stuff to get back to my message, and finally press control-V to paste.
That's an incredible waste of time, but that's what the Help file tells me I
have to do, and if that's really the way this works, someone at Microsoft
screwed up in a major way on a feature that's used by many Outlook users.
Please tell me I'm overlooking an easy way to insert email signatures.

I don't know about Outlook 2003, but in Outlook 2000 if you go to the Tools
menu and select Options, then click the Mail Format tab, at the bottom,
where it says Signature, there is a drop down box that has all of you
signatures. You can select the one you want to be the default and it will be
inserted in every message you create.

When you have a new message open, go to insert, down to
signature, then it will show the options you have for
signatures. You can just click on the one you want, and
it will insert it into your message. Hope this helps!
