MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / January 2007Word 2003 and Outlook 2002
I recently upgraded to Word 2003, My outlook is 2002. It will not let me use Word as my email editor. Is there a wat to make this work You need to have the same version of Word and Outlook in order to use Word as the email editor. So either use Word 2002 if you want to use Word as the email editor in Outlook 2002. Or, of course, use Outlook 2003 so you can use Word 2003 as the email editor.

Is there a wat to make this work In my Outlook 03 it won't do things like replacing words as you type in an email. It suggests corections to spelling when I run the spellcheck, but doesn't do other things that Word 2000 does. Any more ideas?

Fer confirmation you need to ask in an Outlook forum.

You could try ActiveWords [www.activewords.com]; it will work in/from any Windows application ... has an add-in with over 1800 common English words that it will autocorrect (and you can add to the list if you like). Incidentally, it also does much, much more - including opening programs, folders, files, websites & text substitution - all at the command of your fingertips; i.e. you define keyboard shortcuts for virtually anything you want to do on your computer! e.g. if I want to open Word, I type wrd then hit spacebar twice, and Word opens up. Or, if I want to go to the MVPS website, I type mvp [space] [space] and my default browser opens up at www.mvps.org. I discovered this program about 3 or 4 years ago and even though they offer a 60 day free trial, I knew within 30 minutes that this was a utility I could not live without! Because I prefer to be non-mouse-dependent, I'd be lost without it, now! 01/28/2007 09:28 PM <--- (I just typed date [space] [space] time [space] [space] to get all that!) hro Signaturemyssiwyg* ... making your support systems improve what you get! http://www.myssiwyg.ca/ |
