yes, it was composed in PowerPoint by someone else. I then copied and
pasted into a Word document and sent it out via Word. When that didn't
work well, I copied and pasted into Outlook, both in text and html
versions. Still didn't work.

Hi Mike... Did you find a solution yet? I'm in the middle of moving, so
I won't be online too much. But Object Linking is supposed to make this
all work. Have you tried dropping the Word file into the Outlook message
yet? I don't know that much about it since I rarely use it.

No, I haven't found a solution, and I'm slightly disappointed no one
has come forward with one.
Yes, I have tried dropping the Word file into both an Outlook text
message, as well as an Outlook html message.
Thanks.

Hi Mike... I had taken one of those CNET Newsletters coming into Outlook
(my version is 2000). Saved as a HTML file. Opened up with a browser,
copy and pasted it into Outlook. Sent it to myself and it looks just
fine. Does this work for you?
Depending on the web page, I can also successfully do the same for some
webpages sending as email to myself. Same true for you? But webpages
with frames and who knows what else like http://news.yahoo.com/ displays
incorrectly. But it does so before I send it out as well.
You are using HTML format under Outlook right? Rich Text isn't good
enough for this task. It's under the menu bar under Format when you
compose a message. Also you may not have all of the options installed
under Office. You might need to run setup once again to see what is
installed and what isn't. Also remember that Outlook can't do that super
fancy HTML, just the standard stuff.

I am using HTML format, but I've actually created it in Word 2000, and
am sending it out from within Word (since as you say, Outlook doesn't
do fancy HTML stuff). It then goes to Outlook 2000, where I click send
and receive.
Yes, CNET Newsletters and such come in nicely, and those are the kind
of fancy HTML newsletters that I'd like to create. I've been trying
to find out what they use, as I've almost given up on Word.
