I have just upgraded to Office 2007 and it appears that it works in a
different way to Office 2003. I used to be able to create a macro in Word
and use it in Outlook, but it is apparently not so in Office 2007.
Is it possible to create a macro (even a simple one, like a standard email
as a cover to a regular attached report) in Outlook?
If so, how?

Outlook has no macro recorder, so any macros have to be constructed entirely
in code by hand. See www.outlookcode.com for lots of information about
Outlook programming.

If you already have a macro in Word that manipulates the body of an email message, post it and we can try to help you update it to run in the Outlook VBA editor.
