Hey guys,
Hopefully this is okay to post in a primarily Excel-based message forum.
I just have a question about an oft template that my company has available.
When double-clicked, it opens in Outlook.
Basically, it is saved as an .oft and there is just a bunch of text in the message body.
Here is a fictitious example. When opened, the text would be something like this.
After selecting all of the text in the body of the email (via Ctrl+A), the user then hits F9.
Some prompts appear, asking certain questions ("What is the customer's name?", "What is the item number?", "What is the order number?")
After going through and answering all of the questions, the data is then inputted into their proper places on the email template.
It ends up looking something like this:
However, some of the prompts are currently old/outdated (data names have changed, etc). I have been trying to figure out how to edit the existing prompts, but I cannot seem to find the information stored anywhere on the template.
I looked in the VBA and it is completely empty, as is the list of Macros on the template.
Where can I find this information? I have been surfing online trying to find a solution, but I am kind of scratching my head here.
I wish I could just post the .oft here for reference, but it cannot be shared outside of the company.
Thanks in advance for any help!
