    At times when I answer someone I want to insert my signature in the reply, but not all the time. How does one insert a signature in a reply?

    If you don't have a Signature button on the toolbar you should be able to click INSERT->Signature

    Under the reply box is additional options. Click to uncheck "show your signature "

    When you want to reply to someone you can show your signature.

    Which Version of Outlook are you using?

    You do currently have a signature setup in Outlook don't you...

    Attached is a pic from Outlook 2003.

    Steve, your menu bar looked different than mine so I fooled around and found this, attached, When I take the check's out of "use ms word" boxes I do the signature on the insert menu item.

    Well, Ron, I thought you were talking about your signature in the BBS posts. That's what I get for thinking. I never noticed your query was posted in the MS Outlook forum.:eek:

    Those two Word check boxes have been know to cause all sorts of issue....I'd leave em blank.

    Not sure if you also saw in my pic, but there is a Signature button on my tool bar...Right click on the ToolBar and select Custom ->Commands tab....I forgot exactly where it is, but you should be able to find it.

    Signatures

    Guys, I'm a fairly heavy user of Outlook ... am currently using 2003, but have used all versions since the early 90s. I use Word as my email editor and have found that sometimes there's a "signature" icon and sometimes I have to click on the "Options" drop down menu to find it. Haven't been able to figure out why what happens when.

    Anyhow, I typically default to having a signature inserted automatically in new messages and in responses ... then highlight and delete when I don't want a signature on a particular message ... for what it's worth.

    Rgs, Steve
