I am running Outlook 2003 and have this exact same issue.

Anyone have a fix for this?

Thanks.
 
This is the problem of using Word as e-mail editor for Outlook 2002. The two
inevitably interact as you have found. There are two solutions and you may
not like either of them

1. Don't use Word as e-mail editor in Outlook. Outlook has its own editor
which is quite up to the task.
2. Think about changing to Office 2007. Outlook is much better in 2007 and
has its own Word-like editor, but Word itself is something of a culture
shock.

Actually, Word itself is the only editor Outlook 2007 has. It's not
"Word-like", it is Word.

My understanding was that it is a subset of Word?

My understanding was that it was (finally) quite divorced from Word.

Outlook 2007 uses a special .dll of Word that is substantially cut down from the full Word program, so, technically, it uses Word-lite for its message editor.

So as I originally said - A 'Word-like editor' ;)

No, just to be pedantic, it IS Word, but not all of Word. Nothing Word-"Like" about it.
