Default OL 2003 Launches Notepad instead of Word

I have the boxes checked for it to launch Word for editing however it still
launches Notepad.

Any suggestions?

Yes, when editing the signature.

What I am trying to do is put a logo into my signature when sending outgoing
emails. I cannot get it to work.

When I cut and paste the logo just doing a normal signature it is invisible
when I go to create an email.


Also, would you know when someone sends me an email with a URL, when I click
on it "My Documents" window opens up instead of going to the web site?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, when editing the signature.

outgoing
emails. I cannot get it to work.


Well, on the one hand, I never really saw the need to put a picture in the
signature. It just adds to bloat of an email, especially when you attach it
to every single message.

But, that said, if you go to Tools - Options - Mail Format, what is set for
Compose in this message format:?

If it is HTML, go to Control Panel - Internet Options - Programs and make
sure that Word is set as the HTML editor.

If it isn't HTML, change it to HTML.


Also, would you know when someone sends me an email with a URL, when I
click
on it "My Documents" window opens up instead of going to the web site?


In the same Internet Options, click the Reset Defaults (iirc) button and see
if it fixes this. What browser/version are you running?

You are amzazing!....You fixed both issues.

Word launched and then I was able to Create the Logo.

Secondly, I can now launch URL's from my email messages.

I am running IE 7.

I can't thank you enough.


I am launching a new Coaching business and wanted to start sending
professional looking emails.

Lets stay in touch.



p.s. If you want a complementary Coaching session its on me.
My Coach Line is 315.849.1057

Not really sure what I need coaching in. Except maybe a little LAX
pointers. But 315 is a bit of a trek for a 206 sorta guy.
