Email has no footer (Word2003) "Ron O'Brien" <castcall[ at ]ntlworld.com> 10/23/2008 3:37:33 PM I'm running Word (part of Office2003) on a Vista Home Premium PC. I have a document template that has a footer containing a disclaimer - so important it appears with the main body of the document. However, if I hit the email icon on the toolbar and send the email from within Word only the main body text is sent, the footer (and same goes for headers) is not shown at the recipient's end. Is there a way around this? -- Ron O'Brien

Set the disclaimer up as a signature in Outlook.....you will need to insert it before sending.

Gordon has suggested the correct solution. -- Suzanne S.

Re: Email has no footer (Word2003) "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell[ at ]msn.com> 10/23/2008 4:15:12 PM As pages do not exist in HTML, when you send a document as an HTML email, the H&Fs are lost. You can create the disclaimer as an AutoText entry for quick insertion at the end of the document. However, if you need it automated, you can purchase Disclaimer software to install in the Exchange server (if you are using such a system) which will automatically add it to every outgoing email. However, as Declaimers have absolutely no legal standing, they are no more that a waste of cyberspace and bandwidth. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Ron O'Brien" <castcall[ at ]ntlworld.com> wrote in message news:Op2nFVSNJHA.6044[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...

Re: Email has no footer (Word2003) "Ron O'Brien" <castcall[ at ]ntlworld.com> 10/23/2008 4:57:47 PM Thanks all for the advice so far given. If I can just pick your brains a little further??? The 'disclaimer' - which actually is more than a disclaimer and contains legal stuff and declarations - in my 'postal version' of my header used for this purpose, the headed paper (as printed via Word carries business name and contact details in white lettering on a dark teal background. The disclaimer, I referred to, is in the footer and is a matching white letters on dark teal. I can't see anyway I can replicate that using the autotext - is that right, I'd only be able to use plain text? Thanks again Ron
