Our stationery is for Outlook Express and has been made to be saved in the same folder that Microsoft has already set up or in the case of EML files to be saved to a folder of your choice. Save our stationery by saving our zip files to your desktop and then unzip them into C:/Program Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/Stationery or once again if it is an EML unzip to a folder of your choice. We use the WinZip program to Zip our files and anyone can get a free demo of this program to use to unzip them Here. Once those files are unzipped go into your Outlook Express. When you open your first stationery go to View and tick source, edit. By doing this you will now be able to preview your stationery and make sure it is working to the way it is intended to.
Go into OE - message - new message using - select stationery. This will bring down a drop box that will say at the top left - select stationery. Making sure you have preview stationery ticked scroll over until you see HTML symbols and single click into it to preview the stationery. Once you have selected which one you would like to use double click into that HTML symbol and you will bring up the stationery in EDIT mode. Double click into your text box and where it says Text Here type your message, put in email address of person you wish to send stationery in the TO area, write something in the subject line and then click into the preview area to view the working stationery. If you are happy with what you have done go back into edit and click on send to email the stationery. If you wish to change something go ahead and do so now before sending. Of course if it is an EML file you just double click on the file and proceed to write your message as above. Below you will see some pics on the settings you should have in Tools, Options in Outlook Express.
If you are inexperienced, many stationeries will not look the same in EDIT as they do in preview. If you are in doubt, send the stationery to yourself first before using.

We hope this has been of some help to those of you who are not experienced in using stationery.
