Hi

Is there a way to programmatically get the file name and location of the
currently set outlook signature?

Thanks

In OL 2003 you can have two signatures for each account, one for new e-mails
and one for replies.

The accounts you can find in the registry under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\[User]\9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676\

The signature files are under:
c:\documents and settings\[user]\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures
 
Anyway to find the actual name of the signature file as the user may have
given any name to it?

Thanks

Regards

The file name is equal to the signature name. That value you can read in the
registry, and for each name there´re three files (*.txt, *.html, *.rtf).

what version of outlook? sigs are stored in a signature folder under
C:\Documents and Settings\username\ - but you need to read the registry to
know which is used or set as default (ol2003).
 
I have searched around for it but have not found. Could I please have a code
example of how to read the signature name from the register?

Many Thanks
