1174628 2011-02-02 04:37:00 Re installed Win 7 and Office 2007, etc.

Now, when I send an email with nothing in the 'Subject' box, there's no alert message alerting me that I've missed out the subject.

Googled and tried a few methods which requires editing the “ThisOutLookSession” vb project, but all didn't work!

Is there a built-in thingie in Outlook 2007?

1174629 2011-02-02 04:48:00 Same here, sent one to myself. It didnt come up with anything saying fill in the subject line either. Just dont forget to fill it in, I suppose Speedy Gonzales (78)
1174630 2011-02-02 05:17:00 I have found add ins for Outlook 2007 and 2010 which are not free.

1174631 2011-02-02 06:41:00 I remember my previous installations used to have that feature as a default setting in OutLook. bk T (215)
1174632 2011-02-02 06:55:00 2010 comes up with an alert asking whether you want to send the email without a subject line and from memory, 2007 used to do the same. Try having a look through the help for default settings for subject line ... just type in "subject line alert".

Bobh ... didn't have to purchase any add ins for 2007 or 2010 to get the subject line alert.

1174633 2011-02-02 07:00:00 this works (www.dotnetfunda.com). Just tried it without a subject and it came up with a window Speedy Gonzales (78)
1174634 2011-02-02 07:07:00 I found this on this site (office.microsoft.com). Unfortunately it was not the answer I was looking for. This note appeared which may answer your question.


Note Outlook does not prompt you to provide a Subject line. If you think you saw a prompt to provide a Subject line, you were using the basic e-mail program Microsoft Outlook Express, which comes with Microsoft Internet Explorer.

I seem to remember Outlook Express came bundled with earlier Microsoft operating systems.

I did have Office 2010 when it was in Beta. That could be where I remember be alerted for not putting a subject in an email. I'm now back with Office 2007 and could not find it in Outlook 2007.

1174636 2011-02-02 09:09:00 I'm pretty sure I remember it from Office 2003 - 2007 and now with using 2010. Having said that, I believe it was just the default setting for the program as I cannot remember having to choose an option or change any settings.

Weird ... or what ?!

I'm sure too that Office 2007 (somehow) has that feature as I remember quite some time ago I forgot to type something in the subject box and the alert message popped up. Maybe it was in my dreams:D
