Outlook 2003 SP2 on WinXP Pro Vers 2002 SP2
When I create a new message, it uses Normal.dot as expected.
When I reply to a message it uses another template, with Language=English
(US), other Font size, other paragraph spacing, etc.
How can I change that?
Thanks,
Dan

I don't think you can.  Outlook used the format of the original message when
replying or forwarding.

Thanks for your reply.
I'm not sure that's exact I'm afraid.  I just replied to my own message and
it's definitely using the template with Language=English UK, not my Normal
which I used when writing the message.
It also happens when I reply to messages from France, Italy etc.

Hmm..  Why not just delete all .dot files from your PC, then?  Outlook won't
be able to use any but the regenerated normal.dot.

Thanks Brian.  I liked this radical but simple idea!
But it didn't work!  Incredible!

P.S. erratum: in my previous message read Language=English (US); I need UK
