MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / April 2007Table in Template
Is it possible to put a table into an e-mail template? If yes, what is the procedure. Thank you. The easiest way is need to be using Word as your e-mail editor and use the Insert | Table command. What, by the way, are you thinking of in terms of "e-mail template"? People don't always mean the same thing by that term.

As I understand it, to create such a thing, I have to create the template/form in Outlook, and cannot be using Word as the editor. Is there a way to create a re-usable document in Word (so I can use Table/Insert) that I can use directly as an Outlook document.

Create a message as you normally would, adding the table. Close and save the message to your Drafts folder. Turn off Word as the email editor. Open the saved message. You can then either save it as an .oft templat file or (better) publish it with the Tools | FOrms | Publish Form command.

Hi Sue, et al, Great help with getting tables into an Outlook template. Can anything similar be done with inserting a Date and Time field into a template (in 2003)? I don't understand why MS wouldn't give their templates the same functionality as an e-mail you just start from scratch. > Create a message as you normally would, adding the table.

If Word is your mail editor, a field might work, assuming you refresh it to update the value, but that seems like a lot of trouble to add information that duplicates what will already be present in the message headers.
