    Hi All, I have coded a new stationery for Outlook 2000.
    It has a background .bmp and a picture on the right side of the background
    plus a couple of other items.
    Here's the html code ...
    =============================================
    <HTML>
    <BODY BACKGROUND= "DT200401.bmp ">
    <img src= "wildorchid2.jpg" width= "120" height= "350" align= "right ">
    <BR>
    <img src= "Dtlogo.gif" width= "70" height= "15 ">
    <a href= "http://khaila.topcities.com/DTMain.html "</a>
    <br>
    <font size= "2 ">My Web page</font>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    =============================================
    If I use it as stationery, I can type in text as usual.
    The problem is that the image wildorchid.jpg moves down the page each
    time I enter a new text line in the mail, and I have to nudge the pic up again
    with a left click held and mouse move.
    What should I add to the html code to permanently keep the pic in it's correct position top/right ?
    thanks for your time and help
    regards

    Not sure if this will help, but the line with the anchor is erroneous:

    It should be something like this:

    <a href= "http://khaila.topcities.com/DTMain.html ">A BIT OF TEXT</a>

    I don't know if the fact that the <a> anchor metafield wasn't properly closed would cause your problem.

    Hello ReggieB, Nice to here from you again and thanks for the help - I
    hadn't spotted the anchor syntax error. I corrected the code in line with
    your tip and the stationery works fine now with Outlook 2000.
    As you say, what the anchor error has to do with the picture moving down,
    I cannot fathom :confused:
    Here's the corrected, working code for info ....
    ========================================================
    <HTML>
    <BODY BACKGROUND= "DT200402.bmp ">
    <img src= "wildorchid2.jpg" width= "120" height= "350" align= "right" border= "2" hspace= "1" vspace= "1 "><BR>
    <img src= "Dtlogo.gif" width= "70" height= "15 "> <br>
    <a href= "http://khaila.topcities.com/DTMain.html "><font size= "2 ">My Web page</font></a>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    ========================================================
    regards
