Default Outlook 2003: Formatting letters

Hi Is there anyway to give some kind of formatting to letters created by the
‘letter wizard’ when using contacts to write letters. To be a little clearer:
I click on: Contacts-actions-new letter to contact-the letter wizard appears.
I use the insert address facility/date/salutations/enclosed etc. When I click
finished the recipient’s name and address/date/sender’s address etc. are all
bunched together with no spaces. It is not that big a problem a few clicks
sorts it out but it would be nice if there was a permanent way to sort it.
Thank you.

Not really. That feature is so dysfunctional none of us use it. It has been
removed from current versions.

Russ thank you: At present I just copy and paste contact postal addresses to
send letters. Is there any other way? Please do not waste your time answering
this post if there is no other way. You do a great job in answering peoples
questions. Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.

Most of us just use the Insert Address function in Word. It's easy to create
a Word template that includes all your return address information, signature
line and formatting. Then just use "Insert Address" to put in your recipient
name and address information from Outlook.
