Hi everyone (Office Version 2003)
My client is using Access Database and merge to Letter templates (I will be creating new template to Client, Barrister, Accountant etc - 1 for most used addressees).
The client seems to think that his Outlook default EMAIL stationery should have his letterhead or at least LOGO on it on top right automatically) his logo is actually on left but let us not go there. How do I automate this with usability?
EMAIL is a default template (I did not think you could edit it except to create new stationery) but if his default stationery is to have his logo and of course his signature automatically displays what do I do? I created a an autotext with just logo to play in position he required (at this stage right hand side).
I have letter templates merged with Access which I thought could and should be used to Merge HTML email when saved on his system and then emailed as HTML. This seems an effective way to do it.
He seems to think I am missing the point. So (if that is true) how do I get a default stationery or EMAIL to show logo and still be able to remove the logo? It seems that if his default EMAIL has his letterhead logo and address and disclaimer logo on footer then when he just wants to say "Hi Bob, received your fax." then only the logo and his usual signature would be required. Not the ftr jpeg file nor his business address (just his logo).
Pls bear with the babble.. As he uses Word as his Email editor the default Normal.dot I set up shows with styles - how do I get a default letter stationery to appear and have the option to select plain stationery with just logo and signature whilst only doing HTML emails...
"LOGO Business Address (in HDR)
[Create Date]
Dear Bob
Thank you for that email.
Signature plays out (fine)
There is a jpeg ftr for his letter."
He assures me all large firms do this - yes but I think they just merge HTML to email as far as I know like Publisher - just publish the email.
My point is - if you are creating letters with merge in the first place why do you want your logo as a permanent fixture on your default EMAIL stationery when you try sending MERGE TO HTML EMAIL does it not sit on top of the default?
As I said I use his logo in AUTOTEXT as it is easier for him to play it on his HTML email format.
If anyone understands this babble I would be most appreciative of what other legal users (huge ones of course...) just kidding!! do.
Many thanks to anyone brave enough to jump in with some scenarios or solutions they use.
Of course he only has clients (lucky person) that use HTML.... If am missing the point could someone please enlighten me!
Regards
Janine
