insert a twisty to expand collapse text in outlook

[shaz0503]

All

I would like to be able to insert a 'twisty' to expand / collapse
information within an email so recipients can read only the section they need
- otherwise email will be long.. No I don't want to attach a doc

OR

how do i create a 'table' with tabs to provide the same information

Have used Lotus in a previous work place and this was possible but can't
seem to do this in Microsoft.

Any assistance appreciated

Wouldn't that require a script (to track the state of an object) in an
HTML-formatted e-mail to hide/unhide sections of text? If so, and since
e-mail clients block scripts by default, he can't get what he wants.

Perhaps the Outlook team should consider implementing this kind of powerful functionality into Outlook. Lotus Notes implemented it 14 years ago (1995). It is a VERY powerful way to manage large complex e-mail documents and it's trivial to implement in the editor/browser as well as on the OWA interfaces.
