how can I insert text file's text into my email in outlook 2007
 

I used to use outlook express. There is a lovely function to insert text
file's text into my currently writing email. How can I do that in my outlook
2007 ?

Time before, I first create a text file, say 'payment method.txt', then type
in all my standard payment method information to my customer. When I was
replying an email with my standard text, I simply use the "insert - text
file" function, instead of openning the 'payment method.txt', copy and paste
to my email.

Can I do that similar in outlook 2007 ? Thank you very much

Make the text file a signature.

Use quick parts or Insert, Insert as Text (on the Insert button drop down).
Or create templates with the boiler plate text. The signature method will
not work in Outlook 2007.

See http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2008/20080709.htm for more info on
using templates.

No signatures in Outlook 07?

of course there are signatures - they are not inserted the same way though
and are much less useful for boilerplate text as in past versions.

What a shame. Sigs for boilerplate text is one of the main reasons I use
Outlook. I hope Outlook 03 will be supported for awhile.

You can use Outlook 2003 as long as you want, "supported" or not - Outlook
2000 is long out of support and many people still use it.
