AskWoody LoungerThat seems to be the answer, Phil.
Thanks,

AskWoody LoungerIt’s in Normal.Dot, but something must be running after it. I really don’t want the PDF toolbar there, and when the View Changes is turned on, things that are inserted always come up as changes. Grrr.

AskWoody LoungerWell, for instance, I just went into a new document. My first instance using autotext, yielded my name in Times Roman, black. The next item yielded a sign off, “Best, Michael” in Arial black, and a third, another sign off, came up in Arial, blue. In each case, that is how the format existed when the autotext was recorded. Since many are created in email, some also come up in Courier.

AskWoody LoungerI tried creating an Autoopen and a Dcoument_Open macro, and neither worked. The code in each was the following:
Application.ActiveWindow.View.ShowRevisionsAndComments = False
CommandBars(“PDFMaker 6.0”).Visible = Falsethe first line I got from a post above, the second by recording the closing of the PDF toolbar. But, while running the AutoOpen macro achieves the result I want, it is not happening automatically.

AskWoody LoungerI’ve had this problem for ages. It seems to me that it happens if I look at the Outbox folder. Then the last email liated loses its date and is not sent. I don’t know how to prevent this, but I have a simple workaround for when it does happen.
Open your Navigation Pane so Inbox is visible. In Outbox, drag the email with no date to Inbox. Go to Inbox, open the offending email, click SEND, and then Send/Receive All.
That usually does it.
Best,

AskWoody LoungerI’ll try that, but right now FP seems to be recognizing the folder as a web site, so it’s OK.

AskWoody LoungerThanks, that seems to have worked. I replaced the @ in the mailto: as follws mailto:miqqi@gilbert1.net – will that protect me enough? My university address is completely blown, but I’d hate for my own url addressses [like that one] to become useless.

AskWoody LoungerI used the encoder form, and followed instructions. In FP I replaced the address with the encoded form. But, when I saved the page in FP it converted it to the email address, so that’s what got posted. How can I prevent that?

AskWoody LoungerGood questions. I open the message, make the changes, then press the send button again. And, no the preview window is not open in that folder. However, I just tried something. I moved the offending letter to my Inbox, opened it, selected Send, selected Send/Receive All, and away it went.
Very strange.
