I'm using Outlook 2000 and our System Administrator does not allow us to turn
on the feature to use Microsoft Word to edit emails.

What I would like to do is let a user click on a button in Access and it
would open an Outlook template or form, populate the appropriate fields using
information from the database, then send the email. I have been able to
create and send a plain text email, or send a template or form with blank
fields. I even tried to create a form in Word then insert the form into the
email, similar to Insert > Object > create from file, but couldn't figure out
how to do that either.

Could someone please let me know first of all, is this even possible or am I
just spinning my wheels here. And if it is possible, where do I start? I've
never programmed in Outlook, but I have used redemption to create and send
plain text emails.

Any help or advice is appreciated.

Thanks
