OK, I don't want to open Word as Word. If you customize the toolbar of
Outlook and under the Tools section, there is an Action group. Within this
group is MS Word as html. When used, this opens Word as the email editor.
This is still available on our PC's and works but only for new email.

What I need is a macro that will copy the email one is reading / is active
(including the To, CC, Subject, etc) and paste it into the Word email editor
after opening it. If one uses the newly created Reply macro, then the To and
subject would automatically be filled out. If one used the newly created
Reply to All macro then the To and Cc lines would also be filled out
automatically. Is any of this possible?

I appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks

If you create a macro to open Word it would be an independent document
window and not an email. So you'd have to create a new email, then copy the
text from the open one or one you are reading in the preview pane.

However, that would not be a reply message it would be a new one, with none
of the conversation indexing, addressing and other characteristics of an
actual reply message.

The PC is on Citrix thus the registry can not be accessed.

Is there a way to write a macro that would capture the email being read
and
open Word as the editor? I can use Word as the editor for new emails
because
I have it as an icon on the toolbar (got it from the action menu under
customizing the toolbar). I need to be able to easily use it for Reply and
Reply to All.

Thanks
