Default Signature Button and Insert Signature Missing

Outlook 2002 SP3 in Exchange 2003/SBS 2003/XP Pro SP2 environment. On one
PC only there is no insert signature button or Insert Signature Menu Item.
Google search found squat, Any ideas, please?

Default Signature Button and Insert Signature Missing

That's perfectly normal if Word is the email editor. If you are using Word as your email editor (aka WordMail), you will not have an Insert | Signature command like the regular Outlook editor. If you want to be able to insert a signature into a WordMail message manually, you can create an AutoText entry for each signature. You can then insert them with the Insert | AutoText command.

Or, create multiple signatures the normal way (Tools | Options | Mail Format) and make one the default. If you want to use a different signature for the current message, right-click the signature that Outlook inserted automatically. From the pop-up menu, select either the name of the signature you want to use or E-mail Signature to create a new one. I personally prefer this technique. This is also the technique you need to use if you want Outlook 2003 to automatically change your signature when you switch accounts on an unsent message.

Thanks, Sue. Word is the email editor. I hadn't noticed that the other PCs
weren't.
