Save-AS Doc

[mwalk66]

In outlook 2003 we could save emails as DOC along with various other options.
Obviously the infinite wisdom as MS though this was not worth including in
Outlook 2007.
With that being said is there an add-in or other method by which to save
an email in doc or docx format? Help woudl be greatly appreciated as we have
alot of VERY grumpy executives over this.

Nope. Outlook 2003 doesn't have that ability. All message formats can be
saved as .txt, .oft, or .msg. In addition, HTML messages can be saved a .htm
and Rich Text messages can be saved as .rtf. Perhaps that's what you
remember, because often RTF files are associated with Word. That hasn't
changed in Outlook 2007.

I mistakenly said doc instead of rtf. The fact remains that the
functionaility is not available in 2007, is there an add-in or other work
around other than the defaults?

nevermind I found another workaround.
