I need to change the default "save as" type in Outlook 2003

[Guest]

I use File/"Save as..." to relocate some of my email messages. The current
default setting that pops in when the 'Save as' window opens is HTML. I am
wondering if there is a way to change that default, rather than having to
select Outlook Message Format or whatever each time I save. I am using
OUtlook 2003 in Windows XP. Thank you.

If you want to save a message in Outlook Message Format, ust drag it out of
the Inbox into a Windows folder.

Thank you, Brian. You're right, that does work, but is cumbersome when I
have to open multiple folder repeatedly. I'd be thrilled if I could just
find a way to change that default setting in "Save As". But I appreciate
your tip also, and that may have to be my resolution if I cannot change that
default.
