I am trying to create a macro so that with a function key I would be able to
have text inserted into an email. Is this possible in Outlook 2003?
 
In that case, I'd recommend that you use the third-party Redemption library,
which will allow you to insert text regardless of what message format the
message is using; see http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/safeinspector.htm

Any macro you create can be added to the toolbar with View | Toolbars |
Customize and assigned an accelerator character, allowing you to access it
with Alt+ that character.

If you decide you want a non-macro solution, you could create additional
Outlook signatures.

The reason I recommend Redemption is that with the Outlook object model
itself, it is possible to insert text only for messages in HTML format, using
the HTMLDocument object returned by Inspector.HTMLEditor. SafeInspector, on
the other hand, can handle also RTF and plain text message bodies.
