Hello experts,

using Outlook '03...

2 Task questions:

I often drag e-mail messages to my Task folder. When I do this, it
double and triple spaces the paragraphs in the e-mail. Can I avoid
this?

Also (in Tasks), is there a way to check spelling as you type, much
like in Mail (when Word is your editor). I know I can check spelling
manually, but I like knowing while I type.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
alex
 
1. Sorry - unable to reproduce this behavior. What is the message format when you see this happen?

2. No.

Thanks Milly for your comments.

The message format is simply Arial/single spaced created from Word (e-
mail editor).

You said that you cannot reproduce the error/event; is this true even
after you drag the e-mail message (from your inbox) to your Task bar?

The spacing is fine if I "send" it to Task (right click | move to
folder); the problem only exists when I drag the message. The problem
with sending, however, is that the message becomes (it appears) an
embeded object whereas dragging actually creates a Task as if you'd
typed it.
