I am not at all familiar with Office 2007, so bare with me. I have a 3 users on Outlook 2007. One of them, when typing an e-mail, we can not get the text to wrap. It keeps going along a single line. The page is set to a letter paper size. with .5" margins. The page format is set to normal. I am having difficulty navigating around and can not find any settings that would affect this. Any ideas?

I found the Sans Serif font causes this. If this is the font this user is using have them switch to different font.

cruising through the Word settings to find a 'wrap text' setting. Also, try disabling CSS font formatting and enabling 'reduce the file size of the message...' if using HTML mail.
Tools\Options\Mail Format
Word wrap can be set in Outlook if using plain text under the 'Internet Format' option on the same tab.

Haven't explored Word 07 much as yet, but most of the settings are available via the Office Button in the upper left of the Word window.

You do not have a choice of editor in Outlook 2007. Your response will only apply to previous versions of Outlook.

Whether mandatory use of Word or not, the configuration of Word has an effect when Word is the email editor.

You do not have to have Office Word 2007 installed on your computer. The current editor is built into Outlook 2007.
