You can also press alt-E for edit and then press E again for edit message. Then do the alt-o. -----Original Message----- From: Jablonski, James (LNI) [mailto:JABL235@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 12:56 PM To: 'jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: Question About Outlook 2000 There is a similar problem with our Dragon users (the "pro" version has some voice synth) reading Outlook2000 mail. Our work-around for them is to open a reply (ALT+R) (you will not need to send the reply at all) and then Format (ALT+O) the now editable text as Plain Text (T), HTML (H), or as Rich Text (R). You answer Yes (Y) to the question that asks you if you really want to do this and the whole note is converted. You only get the message if you are switching to Plain Text because it does not support formatting or embedded graphics like the other two do, and which get lost in the conversion. Once read, the empty Reply note should be canceled without sending it (ALT+F4 and then N). This is a sort of "quick and dirty" approach, but it may be helpful until the scripting can be sorted out? -----Original Message----- From: Midence, Alex [mailto:MidenceA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 7:09 AM To: 'jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: Question About Outlook 2000 Why not just open the message, forward it to yourself so it'll let you edit it then on the forwarded copy, hit alt-o for format and then go down to html text and hit enter? It should make your document an html file.

I posted this to the Outlook mailing list a while ago. I asked how to automatically convert plain text messages to HTML messages so that I could read them properly. Now, somebody on that list said that I could adapt a certain VB script for Outlook so that the job could be done. The script is designed to convert HTML messages to plain text messages, but the person told me that I could replace a certain portion of the script with something else. She said I could adapt the script from CW mode to work with IMO mode. The script can be found at http://www.slipstick.com/dev/code/zaphtml.htm#cw in the CW mode section, and she said I replace Item.Body = Item.Body with Item.HTMLBody = Item.Body I tried loading the VB editor and am clueless as to how I can insert this code. Help would be appreciated.
