| 125360 | 2003-03-04 07:43:00 | One way I copy email (outlook) to word is that I actually open up the email and not copy from what they call the panel. Just doubleclick the email and copy and paste the open email window and the formatting should be the same as the email itself. Dunno if this would help but it helped me. |

| 125361 | 2003-03-04 08:19:00 | I don't usually want the original formatting, but I especially don't want to keep non-standard formatting. That's why I want to strip the existing data. Passing the email through Notepad works faster than any search and replace functions and also strips odd line spacings etc. Thanks anyway, Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 125362 | 2003-03-04 08:40:00 | Billy there was a handy program on last months PC World cover disc I think it was. It was called Clip Strip. After 30days it runs out. I went searching and found a free alternative that I find very good. Just have a shortcut in the quick launch and you can always access it. You can have it start in the system tray when windows loads if you want as well. Clip Case (www.dougworld.com) does it very well indeed. |

| 125363 | 2003-03-04 20:14:00 | Thanks JM, that's a doozy of an applet :D Don't you just hate the way the site loads though? Talk about pretentious, it is a monument to somebody's ego for sure and wastes a lot of time. I'd hate to access it on dial-up. Thanks again Cheers Billy 8-{) :) |

| 125364 | 2003-03-05 07:00:00 | umm the site seemed to load up fine for me.... not that I was watching it while it was loading, thats what other windows are for. | -=JM=- (16) | ||
| 125365 | 2003-03-05 07:02:00 | Also if it's as bad as you say it is. I'd most certainly hate to load it on JetStream ;) | -=JM=- (16) | ||
| 125366 | 2003-03-06 02:12:00 | Well, although I now have Clip Case courtesy of JM that does much more than I was looking for, I found the answer to my original query quite by accident. I was sitting in the *cough* library reading the latest PC World and in the letters section a reader was writing in glowing terms to robo, thanking him for giving the answer to just that question. The code was ^l and somehow I had even missed that in the "Special" section of find & replace. I knew I had read it somewhere robo, but didn't link your name to the memory. Just as well you don't read all the posts or you could get justifiably frustrated and wonder if anybody ever bothered to read your advice. I do of course, I just don't remember it. :8} Still, Clip Case is great so I retrieved something from the ashes, if not my pride. :D Cheers Billy 8-{) |

Geez Billy, didya even read my instructions the other day?? ?:| >>> You will see that the characters for this is ^l so if you can remember that (unlike me, duh!) all you need do is type it . Then again, maybe it was ME having a blonde day with my garbled instructions? :O That would be more like it -- just another thing to add to the list of disasters following me around like damn shadows just lately . :-( Never mind, all's well that ends well . Glad you got something extra out of it . :-) |

| 125368 | 2003-03-06 03:09:00 | Oh yes, I did read your instructions Susan, but by that stage the patient had died and I was frantically looking for somewhere to hide the body. :O Faux pas are so visible on public forums. :( I don't know why I don't take up something less embarrassing, like streaking, Americas Cup sailing, or membership of Act. :8} Cheers Billy 8-{) :p |
