Default header.htm automatically generated for emails

Okay, I'm pretty frustrated right now. I had to do a full install of a new
operating system (Vista Business) earlier this month that was previously an
Windows XP system. That also forced me to reinstall all of my applications
(in some cases new versions). which also included reinstalling Office 2003
Pro. Of course nothing works the same any more. Upgrades will not install
because of some obsecure Error Code 779. (separate issue and unresolved.)

The newest problem is that all of my emails now generate an xmlns file that
either adds a bunch of lines drawn at the bottom, or worse, attaches a file
named "headers.htm" to the email. I'm using Word as the editor and sending
in HTML format.

Since I use this system for business (responding to questions from online
students) , that attachment now gets my emails sent to the receivers Spam Box
about 1/2 the time.

How do I fix this? I've tried editing the "normal.dot", but Word does not
permit me to save that file, because "it's in use". And Vista does not allow
me access to the folder to save it under another name, then rename it later.

It sounds like you have a header set in word. Close Outlook, verify word is
closed. Find the .dot file and open it in word for editing. I'm not sure if
you need to edit normal.dot or the email .dot file - check both.

Default header.htm automatically generated for emails

Sorry, I see nothing in the .dot that causes this. I just looked at the code
in the attachment (header.htm) and it looks like Word is automatically trying
to add Footnote Separaters at the end of the email.

The css tag in the .htm attachment is titled
'mso-special-character:footnote-separator' and the added html code (4 times)
is hr align=left size=1 width="33%".

This is something new that started after I reinstalled Office. Not a clue
what to look for and why it's being added automatically by Word.

Somehow you did something that turned on footnotes. Or could it be review?
See if you have Review enabled.

Diane, thank you for your reply. I've looked everywhere to see where
Footnotes or "Review" has been enabled, but I just can't find it. Any ideas?
Office "Help" isn't much Help, but I expect that with MS Products.

This is taking up way too much time for something that seems simple. I'm
assuming this is a Toggle switch.

Again .. thanks for your help so far.
