I am trying to set-up Outlook such that when I reply to a message by noting
my own comments against those of the originator (in the original text),
these are automatically highlighted and shown in a different colour. I know
this is possible as I use the feature on another PC.

I have tried: Tools - Options - Preferences - E-mail Options and then ticked
the box 'Mark my comments with:' but this has made no difference.

Any ideas?

I am running Outlook 2003 SP2.

Many thanks.

that only works with html and RTF formatting and possibly only if using word
as the editor.

Thanks. Interestingly, the version where it doesn't work uses HTML and Word
(not RTF). The other PC doesn't use Word or HTML and it does work!
