How do I insert form text in an email?
I had to get a new hard drive for my computer so several of the items I used on my Office 2013 Outlook program are now missing. I used to have an icon on the quick access toolbar that I could click. This would place a few pre-written sentences in an email that I would send to customers.
There was a mini-program in Outlook in which I could write this boilerplate text but I now don't know where to find it. I just spent an hour looking for it with no luck. The tab I clicked in Word is Autotext or Quick Parts. I then had access to this from Outlook. How can I get Word and Outlook to work together? Last edited by TommyVincent; 06-08-2015 at 04:29 PM.

You can create AutoText entries in both Word documents and the Outlook editor (ALT+F3) - see also https://www.outlook-apps.com/autotext-in-outlook-2013/
They are however stored separately by default. You can create autocorrect entries in Word and Outlook also and this may be what you were referring to - http://www.cnet.com/how-to/fast-acce...rrect-options/

Replying to an email message
When I click "reply" to an email, the Message window is what I type text into. I would prefer to use the Reading pane to reply to an email. I used to get the Reading pane when I clicked on reply.
In the Reading pane I see the insert tab. There I can enter a hyperlink, photo, or Quick Parts text snippets. After the crash of my hard drive and the reinstallation of Office I'm totally confused. All I want to do with the Quick Parts thing is to copy and paste two small paragraphs from Word. When I access Quick Parts from the Insert tab, I don't know how to type or paste text into the box. I don't need anything elaborate - just a few hints on how to get back to "normal." Also how do I get rid of the image that appears when I get an email? There must be a way to edit that image out when I receive an email. This computer crash has scrambled my thinking. I just read Microsoft Office 2013 for Dummies and got the answers I needed. The solution was not as hard as I thought it would be. Last edited by TommyVincent; 06-09-2015 at 09:31 AM. Reason: New insight |
