On my XP computer, while using Outlook Express the "Message in HTML" is not
highlighted.
How can I reinstall its function?
Thank you, Bill
 
HTML formatting is frowned upon in newsgroups.

From OE HELP:

[[To use HTML formatting

When you create messages using HTML formatting, only e-mail programs that
support HTML can read the formatting. If the recipient's e-mail or news
reading program cannot read HTML, the message is displayed as plain text
with an HTML file attached.

To format all outgoing messages using HTML
1. In the main window, on the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the
Send tab.
2. In the Mail Sending Format or News Sending Format sections, click HTML.

To format an individual message using HTML
* In the e-mail message window, make sure HTML formatting is turned on by
clicking the Format menu. If HTML formatting is turned on, a black dot
appears beside the item called Rich Text (HTML).

Notes
* To edit the HTML source tags, on the View menu, make sure a check mark
appears next to Source Edit. Then, select the Source tab and start editing.
* To set up Outlook Express so that your message replies are sent in a
format that the originator's e-mail or news reading program can read, in the
main window, on the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Send tab.
Select the Reply to messages using the format in which they were sent check
box. ]]
