single user account needs multiple e-mail signatures
 
I belong to several organizations, so I want to be able to choose which
signature I want to use. I can only find where one signature will appear by
default.

If you are using Word as your email editor, you won't see an Insert | Signature command like the regular Outlook editor. If you want to be able to insert a signature into a WordMail message manually, you can create an AutoText entry for each signature. You can then insert them with the Insert | AutoText command.

Or, create multiple signatures the normal way (Tools | Options | Mail Format) and make one the default. If you want to use a different signature for the current message, right-click the signature that Outlook inserted automatically. From the pop-up menu, select either the name of the signature you want to use or E-mail Signature to create a new one. I personally prefer this technique. This is also the technique you need to use if you want Outlook 2003 to automatically change your signature when you switch accounts on an unsent message.

single user account needs multiple e-mail signatures
 
Sorry, my English is not so good. Are you saying it's not possible to see
Signature when I click Insert? I only use MS Outlook for sending mails and I
have two accounts. For me it's easier to use the Insert--Signature, rather
than right-click.

Also, when I click Auto-text, I can't choose New. It's grey, so I can't
click on it.

Please help.

A customer uses Outlook 2003 with Word 2007.

He lost this ability: "If you want to use a different signature for the
current message, right-click the signature that Outlook inserted
automatically."

Is this because of the different versions of Word and Outlook?

Yes as it was a feature of having Word set as your email editor.
