Hello,
I have inherited an OFT file which is a data entry form to collect data, and which has a SEND button on it. Once the email is sent, the recipient gets an email which looks just like that form. However, if I print that email, the printed document contains the text from the form, in the format of a normal email print. That printed document also has additional text (name, phone number, email) that is not collected on the data entry form, but which is put in the email "automatically". How do I change that name/address text in the printed version of the email? That person does not work here anymore. -- David |

You'll have to put the form in design mode, add the message body control to it, run the form, delete the text in the message body, save it as an ..oft. Then repeat to remove the body control from design mode.

Thanks Sue for replying.
I can easily put the form in design mode. I'm not clear how to add the message body control to it. -- David "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: You'll have to put the form in design mode, add the message body control to it, run the form, delete the text in the message body, save it as an ..oft.

Drag the Message field from the Field Chooser to any blank page.

Voila. That did the trick...
Not very intuitive, huh? -- David "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Drag the Message field from the Field Chooser to any blank page. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "David" wrote in message ...
