How do I set an automatic reminder to insert an email subject? I have 3
computers. On my laptop I set Outlook to remind me to insert an email
subject before the email sends. I need to set my desktops (all have Office
XP) but can't recall how I did it nor can I find any info in Help.

Any ideas?
 
There is no such feature, but you can build it in with a little VBA code:

Private Sub Application_ItemSend _
(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
If Item.Subject = "" Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Please fill in the subject before sending.", _
vbExclamation, "Missing Subject"
End If
End Sub
