Default Rich Text Editor

Is there a way to set the rich text editor as the default for messaging. I'm getting tired of having to check it with every new message.


Thanks,
Dan Hacker

Default Rich Text Editor

What is a Rich Text Editor? It's not an Outlook Express option. Perhaps an MS Outlook component?

Outlook and Outlook Express are entirely different programs. You will get better help in an MS Outlook newsgroup:

Hello,

I think you mean HTML.

In Outlook Express Tools Options Send (tab)

Under Mail Sending Format, check HTML.

Also uncheck "Reply to messages in the format that they were sent"

Click OK.

New Message or ReplyFormatRich Text (HTML) is how you access it under OE6. Word Pad is another Rich Text Editor and MS Word recognizes the format.

Thanks for the reply.

I think it was the "Reply to messages in the format that they were sent"
option that was fouling me up. And BTW, under OE6 it is listed as "Rich
Text Editor (HTML)" but then I'm just being picky :-)

Thanks for the solution,
Dan Hacker

used Word or an Office product.

A matter of terminology I would settle for.

I should know better than to cross foils with an MVP. Word Pad uses "Rich

How many credits do I get for this post?

Granted, Word Pad uses Rich Text Format. I just have never heard anyone use
the phrase Rich Text Editor. Note that in Outlook, (not OE), you have the
choice of Plain Text, HTML, and Rich Text, and OE cannot read messages from
Outlook sent using RTF. That is why I thought you originally were referring
to Outlook.

I think this is just a matter of semantics. You get 100 credits.
