Signature insertion deletes email

In Outlook 2007 SP2, most of the time (but not always), when I insert a
signature at the end of a new email, the signature replaces part or all of
the email.

(I work around this by copying my entire email, inserting the signature,
then pasting my email back. What a pain.)

This problem occurs regardless of whether the format is plain text, rtf, or
html.

This problem does not appear to happen when I responding to a email--only in
newly composed emails.

This problem happens with different signatures.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Insert the signature first, then compose your message.

Sounds like you are somehow ending up typing in the signature area instead
of the message area. This usually happens when you place your cursor
directly in front of the signature and press Enter to create some additional
typing space.
