I noticed that my signature goes missing whenever I take a file and
send it to a mail recipient.
I tried this using both Outlook 2002 and Outlook 2003 with or without
Word as Editor.

Any ideas why the signature disappears ??

Thanks in advance.
 
Because Send To commands use Simple MAPI to create a message with the system's default mail program. They don't invoke Outlook directly.

Yes, it's a limitation of Simple MAPI. Workaround #1 is to create the message first, then add the attachment. Workaround #2 is to create a new shortcut in the Send To folder that points to Outlook and invokes the /a %1 command line switch.
