| 590007 | 2007-09-10 22:24:00 | It used to be when I typed : and then ) in Outlook I would get a nice :) . However Outlook doesn't do this for me anymore. I can't remember if Outlook 2007 used to do this or not? I checked my NormalEmail.dotm and smilies work fine in it but maybe this is a setting I need to check elsewhere. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers Susan |

| 590009 | 2007-09-10 22:35:00 | yep, when I'm composing/sending an email. Our messages are set to Rich Text - I've just tried it in both HTML and Rich Text and neither have worked... | susann (12077) | ||
| 590010 | 2007-09-10 22:44:00 | Someone could have deleted it from the Autocorrect list? On the Tools menu, click Options. Click the Mail Format tab, and then click Editor Options. Click Proofing, and then click AutoCorrect Options. |

| 590011 | 2007-09-10 22:47:00 | Doesn't seem to be there so am trying to add it. But how do I get the :) in the "replace with" box? | susann (12077) | ||
| 590012 | 2007-09-10 22:59:00 | Go to all programs / accessories / system tools / character map. Change the top option to Wingdings. Its in the 3rd row. Not too sure how to put it in Autocorrect tho. |

| 590013 | 2007-09-10 23:04:00 | Thanks - tried both copying & pasting as well as putting character code but nothing works :( | susann (12077) | ||
| 590014 | 2007-09-10 23:24:00 | Try THIS (computer911.wordpress.com) but in reverse ( you know what I mean) ;) it tells you how to disable them, so in theory to enable you should only have to tick the boxes instead of unticking or add instead of delete. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 590015 | 2007-09-11 00:03:00 | thanks Wainuitech - but that's the step I got to with speedy above. But I can't get the :) character into the list. | susann (12077) | ||
| 590016 | 2007-09-11 00:09:00 | Got it! Open Word 07, click on insert, click on symbol, at the end the smiley is here. Click on it, it'll come up in the doc. Then go to the Autocorrect list in Outlook and paste it. It'll now paste the :) More info here (office.microsoft.com) |
