Default Structuring text in "Outline View" in an Outlook 2003 email

both you and the recipient would need to use outlook and read it in RTF
format (using word to read it). you could possibly do it using JavaScript in
html, but security features may prevent it from working on the recipients
end.

Hi,

Some of you may be familiar with "Outline view" in Word 2003 where you
can view the headings of a document indented to represent their level
in the document's structure. You can also collapse an outline heading
to show only the headings and body text you want.

I wish to compose some emails in the Outline view. I want the
recipients of my email to collapse and expand headings in their email.
This would give my reader choice over what level of detail they need to
read my email. Is there a way to use the Outline view in Outlook 2003
emails?

The context: I wish to send my boss the list of projects, tasks and
sub-tasks I've completed here. I believe that if I send the email in an
outline view, she can expand the project and tasks to see the sub-tasks
I've done to accomplish the project. She can also choose not to see the
sub-tasks. This way she can get an overview of the different projects
I've completed.

Can someone help me compose an email in MS Outlook 2003 in the
"Outline view". It should have some of the basic functionality the
Outlinew view in MS Word 2003 has. This would be a very useful feature
for many users.


Thank You
