Why not type your basic content into a Word file and then copy and paste from Word to Outlook when you send your daily message?

I understand what you are saying but the problem is that is the subject line that needs to remain the same and the same person...I usually copy and paste the data that I need from Access...i need this person to receive the email with the same subject topic in the email. :-*

Go to your Sent Items folder, dbl-click the repeated email, copy the body of the email, open a new email and paste the body.  Now all  you have to do is put the email address in and you're good-to-go.

A few options.

1. Create a new mail to the sender with subject and recipient set up.  Save and close.  It will now be in your Drafts folder.  Use cut and paste to create multiple copies of that email, so you have several in your Drafts folder.  You can then use one up each time you send the email.

2. Create a little web page, which contains a "mailto:" link, that incorporates subject and recipient.

3. Create a macro that sends the email; then create a button on your toolbar to run the macro.

i tried number 1 but when I clicked save, it disappeared..I check the draft folders and it was not there....I tried #3 and the system told me I had to run visual basic editor to create a macro for it.
