I just got Outlook 2003 and have been having a lot of trouble with
buttons being gray when I need them.

This post is in reference to the reply button and the forward button.
I have an email message in my sent items folder. I need to forward
the message to an additional recepient. However, the forward button
and reply button are both grey. Even using the menu, it will not let
me forward the message.

Does anyone know why this is or what I need to do to forward the
message to the other person?

Do you have the message open or just displayed in the reading pane?
