Outlook 2007 help

Hello,

I have a question about outlook 2007 and characters per line and wordwrap.
when i open outlook 2007 and compose a new email I have 301 characters per line till it starts on new line. My microsoft word is set for 8.5x11 with Wordwrap at 76char per line so i thought outlook would be the same. How do i set Outlook 2007 to display or work like microsoft word so i dont always have to fill each line with 301 characters. I have searched for option in outlook to set page size as default 8.5x11 but i cant find a default setting. Under Mail Format, Message Format, internet format i see wordwrap set for 76, yet it never wraps till i hit 301.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Wow you just had to ask this when I upgraded to office 2010 beta.

Interesting. Try changing to plain text instead.

 

Hello,

I tried what you suggested and it did not work i even tried a restart just to check again and i still have to be above 301 before word wrap works.

So when i goto Tools, options, mail format then message format it is now set to plain text. I am not that good with outlook settings but i think that is correct location to change it.

Thanks in Advance
