When I am in "Contacts" within Outlook, I seem to remember having the format painter icon available to me. Now, I cannot find it. I have looked in all of the toolbars, searched the web for answers and called a few friends, all to no avail. I hope someone can help. Thanks! BTW, what are tags?

you need word as your default mail editor first. then
(i got this from somwhere else) but should be similar in most outlook versions
Outlook 2003
Tools > Options > Mail Format Tab
Check -Use Microsoft Office Word 2003 to edit e-mail messages
Check - Use Microsoft Office Word 2003 to read Rich Text e-mail messages.
OK
Next....
Create New Message
Right Click anywhere on the toolbar - select 'Customize'
(Note: If 'Customise' is greyed out cancel, click the text window, and repeat)
Select - Commands Tab
Select - Format
In the right pane scroll down to the Format Painter
Drag and Drop icon onto your toolbar

Martin,
Thank you VERY much. I already have Word as my editor and have the format painter in my email. The problem is, however, in a record under the "contact" link. There is a large square on the lower right that allow you to place notes or copy emails, etc.
For instance, if I copy something from the web and paste it into this note section, the format is usually different than what I use for this section. This is where the tool comes into play.
My recollection is usually pretty good. I think I recall the format tool because I would highlight the text I prefer, click the format paiinter and go for it!
I even tried thinking out of the box but it didn't work. After opening 2 Outlooks I tried to drag the brush icon from an email window onto the contact tool bar.
Anyway, I hope things are good for you in London. My nephew lives there and loves it. He and his wife of one year just moved into a new house. The process of buying a home is much different than it is in the States.
Well, thanks again and I look forward to your reply.

I think I have MS Outlook, not Outlook Express, so I don't know if it has the same features. You're the only one helping me and I appreciate your time. Thanks!
ive just looked at my outl0ok 2003 and cannot find a way of getting the format painter onto the toolbar in contacts, it's not in the menu! sorry
