Nope you cannot edit it. I'll find an old message with that feature and forward 
to the list as an example.

  You are correct.

  If whatever is embedded in the message I think it is edit time.

  Cy,

   

  I think it's different than that. In some messages, a template of some sort 
can be used, and I think the topic or subject is embedded in the background, so 
to speak. You'll notice this when you read the first line of some messages and 
they give something like a subject. Then arrow down and you start reading the 
actual text. If you reply to such a message, your reply will contain that 
topic/subject in the first line, with your reply following.

   

  It's completely separate from the subject field.

   

  I don't know how to clear this out, except by copying the subject into a new 
blank message, or perhaps by changing the message from an html/rtf format to a 
plain text format?

    Bill,

    If I understand you correctly:

    In Outlook after you hit "reply" shift/tab to the subject line and change 
it then tab to the message portion.

    This will change the subject line of any who respond to *YOUR* message.

    The problem that I have noticed is that many people respond to many 
messages but only the direct thread you changed will reflect the new subject 
line.

    Subject: Thread-topic

     

    Does anyone know how to change a "thread-topic in a message?

     

    My problem is that sometimes I receive a message, and a topic is displayed 
at the top of the message. Even after I change the subject of the message, the 
same old thread-topic message continues to be displayed at the top of each 
succeeding message when it is replied to.

     

    Can a person change this when replying to a message?

     

    Thank you.
