I am using Outlook 2003, and suddenly the advanced editor has changed from Word to Frontpage. How do i correct this and do you know why it suddenly changed?

thanks

This is just a guess - but try :
Internet Explorer / Tools / Internet options / Programs / HTML editor.
I'm not aware of Frontpage ever being an option there, but check it anyway :-)

I appreciate the response and did what you suggested and found not only Frontpage but found excel, publisher, notepad, and word, in the html editor. I was on frontpage which is what we use to edit our website, so I changed it to word to see what happens. I then opened Outlook, Options, signatures, edit, and advance edit, which took me to frontpage again, with a note that stated that "Frontpage was not my current editor, did I want to make Frontpage my editor", and I clicked yes again. I do not understand how Outlook changed the advance editor to Frontpage from Word, but at least it is working. Maybe the fact that it is html and we use Frontpage to edit our webpage has something to do with it. Anyway, thanks for the attempt.

That's great Tigetek. I'm sure you're right about it being to do with using Frontpage to edit your website.
