MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / January 2005Signature
When I go into Outlook, I can't create a new signature. I unintalled office and reinstalled it. I still can't add a signature. The box to choose the signature is grayed out. It's possible that you are using Word as your e-mail editor. In version 2002 and below if you are using Word the option for signatures is not available. To use the signatures you'll need to turn Word off as the editor. To do that, go to the tools menu and select options, then the mail format tab. Under message format there should be a check box indicating what e-mail editor is being used. Hope that works. : ) > When I go into Outlook, I can't create a new signature.

The signatures button, when you go to Tools - Options, then to Mail Format. You can't create a signature because it won't let you. All of Outlook and MS Office 2000 are installed on the machine. > What grayed out where? > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > >> >> the > >> >> signature is grayed out. Ah, this is the first time you've mentioned the Office version. WordMail in Office 2000 uses an AutoText entry for the signature. The KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=206751 tells how to create it in Word.
