Word attachment sent in Outlook

[Karen Brand]

I have a standard form to ascertain meeting attendance,
created in Word, that I send to email recipients as an
attachment. The recipients are to fill out the
attachment and return it to me. When I get their email
reply, the subject line reads "September 4, 2002" which
is NOT the subject line I used when I sent the email
out. Why does that happen and how do I prevent it? It's
very confusing to me and the recipients.

It might be the date on which the standard form was created. Try saving it
as a template and inserting a CreateDate field in it and then create each
new form by selecting New from the File menu and then select that template
as the basis of the new form that you want to create.
