Just a guess here but with the new message window open, make sure the cursor is in the message body field when you look for "insert text as file." If the cursor is still in the To or Subject field, most "Insert" options will be unavailable since it can't insert much into the To or Subject fields.

Hi simplyg123,
Not sure if this is what you're looking for or not, as you mention "insert text as file" and this is for "insert text from file"... When you click on the Insert tab, look for the Text group on the ribbon that is displayed beneath the tabs. Object should be in the Text group....click on the arrow that's next to Object then select Text from File. Navigate to the file that you want to insert and double-click on it. |

no luck there either Greta, outlook 2007 doesn't seem to have the option, i found the object button, but there is no arrow next to it, and it doesn't have text from file option within the object selection box either. Ive read a few articles on how they changed a lot, and not for the best, they have actually been accused of taking "email" back 10 years. Oh well, if anyone happens to figure this out let me know.

Hmmm.....did you try the Create from File tab in Insert>Text>Object?

I tried that GretaP, and it just inserts an object.
The nearest I've got to it is by following this knowledge base article, but it still comes in as an attachment. Rather tellingly, this article was updated this month, but has no ref to Outlook2007. Bummer. what a pain, I very very occasionaly want to do this, but have yet tried it from my laptop (which runs 2007). Lucky for me I've got a pc with Exchange2003 on, so I can still achieve it. |

It's not something I would have use for in my work emails, so I've never had cause to try it. |

Well thanks everyone for trying, i cant believe they would discontinue an option like that. Im going to try and contact someone from Microsoft.

I've been trying this again today - no luck! Technet is full of articles how to do it in every version of Outlook
Look forward to seeing if simplyg123 gets a resolution from MicroSoft. |
