Thanks Sue - the last way worked. Could tinker with the MS generated html and
save the changes.

Then start from the other direction. Create a Word document, edit its HTML source, then use the File | Send To | Email Recipient command.

Thanks Sue - Been through the add/remove program files with one of our
engineers peering over my shoulder. Its indicated that the web scripting
component is there. We tried adding it to an outlook toolbar but subsequently
guessed that when word is on as your html editor then the word toolbars are
relevant. Found the HTML source under All commands and added it in. When I'm
replying or forwarding on an email this does indeed allow me to view the
source ...what it doesn't appear to allow me to do is change the code. If you
change and then save the code you are prompted for somewhere to save it (I
saved it as an HTML file). If you then open this you are back to square one
with an html file that you need to get into a draft email format. Ho-hum
...appreciate any advice as to where I'm going wrong.

Ta,

Graham

Web Scripting is a component of Office. Run Office Setup to add it. It's under Office Tools.

I'm having the same trouble as larkspur that I can't get a web page into
Outlook to work properly ...have a nicely laid out newsletter done in basic
html (done to lowest common denominator). It has internal links done with
name tags and local hrefs - which I seen in another news letter and worked
fine. However when you try to convert web page to email the tags don't work
(the inverted commas get stripped out). I've tried some of the other methods
outlined in Sue Msohers reply but can't get them to work either - the insert
method doesn't do anything at all.
My last hope is editing the source code ...as outlined in method 3 on this
page (http://www.slipstick.com/mail1/html.htm).
But it requires the Web Scripting component ...anybody know how I can get
this installed.
If you know of any tips on the above matter I'd appreciate it. Cheers,
