Using Outlook 2003

Is it possible to create a macro that will open a different stationery than
the default?

Eric's approach at http://blogs.officezealot.com/legaul...7/21/7581.aspx might be what you're looking for.

Sue, thanks for the reply.

I have looked at Eric's solution but it isn't quite what I am looking for.
I would like a macro that will open a new message with a different stationery
other than the default.

That's exactly what his ApplyStationeryFormatting procedure does -- applies a particular stationery to a message. In his application, the user chooses the stationery from a list, but you could certainly modify his procedure to pass the stationery name as a parameter.

Sue,

OK I finally got it to work but now I do not have a choice of when I want to
use the special stationery I selected. When I select the "New" message
button it brings up the new stationery. I would like the "New" button to
work as it originally did and want to add an additional button for when I
want to use the special stationery.

Is this possible.

What is your stationery setting in Tools | Options | Mail Format?

It would help if you provided complete details of how you adapted Eric's technique to your specific scenario. You should have written a macro to create a new message and then apply stationery to it using his procedure. Is that what you did?
