Hi all.

I want to write a VBA script that will create a HTML signature for
Outlook. All I want to do is run it once on each computer. (So that I
do not have to type the whole thing manually!) But I really want to
do it as HTML so that I can insert links for graphics to be included
from our webserver.

I am comfortable with VBA and VB but I really don't know where to
start on this one. Does anyone have a sample script I can look at?
Or any help they can give?

Thanks in advance!
 
You don't need to use Outlook for this at all. Simply create a standard HTML document and store it in this directory on each user's PC:

<drive>:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures

The file will get picked up automatically by Outlook and be displayed in the Signatures combo on the Tools|Options|Mail Format tab.

I noticed a new .htm file didn't appear in the list of signatures under the Insert|Signature menu in a new e-mail message form until I chose the new one, so keep that in mind. You can also do the same thing with Rich Text (.rtf) and Plain Text signature formats (.txt).
