Discussion:
Copying an Entire Outlook Email in 2007 (Ctrl-F in Outlook 2003)

I recently upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2007. When I created an email
message in Office 2003, I could hit Ctrl-F and it would copy the entire email
and create a duplicate of the original email. In Office 2007, when I hit
Ctrl-F the find function opens. Is there any way to copy an existing email
and create a duplicate but separate email in Office 2007? The alternative is
to create a new email, copy the text in the original email and paste it all
into the second email. This is much slower. Using a mail merge is not
appropriate because I have to put a unique attached file in each email.
Thanks!

Open the Drafts folder, right click/drag the e-mail in the Drafts folder
and drop it back into the Drafts folder, select Copy.

Ctrl+A is select all
Ctrl+C is copy.

I think Ctrl+F has always been Find unless you overwrote something (?).

In Outlook 2007 CTRL-F within the body now brings up the find command.
To duplicate the message you need to click in the To, CC, or BCC fiel
first, then press CTRL-F
