Comments on: How can I attach note/comment to Outlook emails? http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/how-can-i-attach-notecomment-to-outlook-emails/ Tue, 21 May 2013 23:11:32 +0000 hourly 1 By: dav11 http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/how-can-i-attach-notecomment-to-outlook-emails/#comment-98571 dav11 Thu, 03 Nov 2011 02:27:21 +0000 #comment-98571 Thankyou for the replies.

The perfect solution I found for me is STICKIES.
http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk/stickies/

I can ‘attach’ a post-it-note to any email / doc / webpage etc.
The post-it-note will appear when the doc is visible and disappear when the doc is not visible.
I can also set alarms on the post-it-note indicating that action needs to be taken re the doc.

I also persuaded the author to mod the app so that the alarms show up even when the parent program for the doc was not even running.

This solution does not mod the original doc – so the original email / doc etc can be passed onto others without fear of passing on my thoughts / ramblings.

This has addressed all my needs.
Regards
David

I am not sure if this is what you are planning. Linking a document /Notes/file is an effective way to get maximum mileage of e-mails. Suppose you got an e-mail for a request for proposal (RFP) or request to prepare cost estimation for a project. If you remember similar activities in the past then you can simply tie them together now for later reference.
I am using Entourage (Office 2008 for Mac) on a Mac laptop. I believe Office 2007 (Outlook) will have similar steps. Open the message that you want to attach/link Notes.
Tools >Link to New (or existing)> select from the dropdown list (Message, Calendar, event, Tasks, Notes, Contacts, Files, etc). You can link any one or all of these items.

Hope this helps & keep us posted which way you got it working.

With the latter, you will not be prompted to save changes.

Click on the insert tab and select attachment, and choose your file to attach to the message. Close the message or choose to move it to an appropriate folder. With the latter, you will not be prompted to save changes.

If you wish to just add text to the message–if it is short you can just type it on eh subject line after the subject (I note the date that I paid a bill this way, along with method of payment) or choose to edit the message as above and type in your text in the appropriate place.

Other versions of Outlook will be similar, though the location of edit and attachment will vary.

I think you are asking about the Signature system, you want to add something in End of the E-Mail, so use the Signature in the Outlook option, if you want to attach something different then please give detail
