i send the same message several times a day and want to
create a macro, so i don't have to cut and paste it each
time. i tried using the macro but am unable to get it to
work. does anyone know what is happening, of if there is
another way to do this? i get an error that the syntax
is wrong.
 
It says I need file SBERET.msi from Microsoft Office XP Small Business disk. does this mean the macro program is not loaded
thank you
 
I don't know. What's this in regard to? Your latest message is painfully
short on detail. You should always quote enough of earlier messages in the
thread for someone to be able to follow the issue.

Why not just create a form with the sender and other things already filled
out? I do that for my weekly status report.
 
Start your new message, get as much of it done as you want to, then go
to Tools | Forms | Publish Form As and save it with a name. Use that form
any time you want to create the item - you should find it listed on the
Actions menu of the folder you're in when you publish the form, if I recall
correctly.

WOW, thanks Ben. It worked. You don't know how much time
that is going to save our entire office. Mahalo.

one more question Ben. Can you put that form on the
toolbar, so you can just click on it. Or, can it go on
the list of items on the left of outlook? Sorry. Thanks
much.

Yes, it can go on the toolbar. I forget the exact steps, but if you right-click
the toolbar and click Customize, then look through the Commands menues
(perhaps under Actions?) you'll find it. I used to have my status report
on the toolbar but I changed machines and haven't recreated that yet.
