I recently ran into a problem where I could not change my font type, size, or
color in new outgoing HTML body portion of emails. I finally found that the
ACCESSIBILITY options for the IE8 Beta I was using were causing the problem.
Has anyone else run into this, possibly with a different version of Outlook?
I don't remember IE7 having this problem. Now I'm wondering what else IE8
Beta might be interfering with!
 
Why would you post this issue here? Why would you not post it in your IE8
beta group? Why would you be using IE8 beta with a product that is no longer
even supported by Microsoft?
 
Yes, I know Outlook XP is no longer supported. I posted it here only since
Outlook is where the symptom first showed up! I now know that Outlook XP is
not the only version to be affected or the only application affected! Good
thing I'm no longer buying Microsoft products. Options in one program
changing or over-riding options in other programs is just poor software
coding plain and simple. And yes IE7 causes the same problem if anyone cares!
