How do I change the reply font color?

[Diane Poremsky [MVP]]

Do you have the full office suite installed or just outlook?
Do you have the option to pick a new color enabled? (just under the font
selection)

You are a wonderful human being! I've spent 2 days scratching my head over
this one! Thank you

OK, but. . .

When I edit a Word document, and start typing inside a paragraph, I am
automatically using the same font, size, color, and other attributes where I
place the cursor. When I am replying to or forwarding an e-mail, I would
like the same ability, but the auto font color invokes. I don't want to set
a default color. I want to use the same font settings as the message I
received.

I have Outlook 2007 and it used a different color font on the replys. Now it
does not. And I have followed the instruction below, it shows it in the
preview of the dialogue box, but in actual replies, it still uses the default
font. Can you help me?

Start your own NEW thread describing YOUR problem, your software
configuration, and WHAT you actually did so far. Don't hijack someone
else's thread, especially one that is over 4 years old.


--- Posting Hints ---

ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here is
looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you don't
well explain your situation by providing the details that you already know,
don't expect others to know what is your situation. Explain YOUR computing
environment and just what actions you take to reproduce the problem.

Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go on
(no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually move on
to the next post and never return to yours.

When using a webnews-for-dummies interface, like Microsoft's Communities or
Google Groups or a forum-to-Usenet proxy, those are gateways to Usenet.
Despite the appearance of a forum, you are still participating in a
newsgroup (Usenet).

Regarding error or status messages:
- Do NOT omit the message.
- Do NOT describe the message.
- Do NOT summarize the message.
- Do NOT paraphrase the message.
- Do NOT truncate the message.
- Do show the ENTIRE message (but munge or star out personal info,
like your username in an e-mail address but not the domain).
- Provide sufficient context on when the error occurs or how to
reproduce it.
