The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Outlook 2003: Image will not display correctly when adding a signature

Asked by mlupino in Outlook Groupware Software

Tags: , , , ,

User is attempting to add a signature to her outlook 2003 e-mail that was created by another user. The signature contains a company logo along with some text and is aligned by a table that is 2 cells, 1 row. The image is a tif image but when resized and saved with word, it becomes a JPG image.

Problem: After creating a signature in Outlook using "Advanced Edit" which opens Word and saving, the signature appears to be previewed okay, but when inserted into a new e-mail, it does not display the image and displays some other box above the signature. The user inserts the image by going to tools then options then mail format and then signatures and advanced.

The user has attempted to preform the following steps to no avail:

1) Create a signature using Word 2003 "Advanced Edit" feature from Outlook and saving that file which would then appear in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures. The signature has been created from scratch. The file appears to be okay when previewing the signature however when inserting the signature manually to a single e-mail messsage the image is missing and there appears to be another box that appears (almost looks like a ActiveX control, or something else).

2) We have tried to copy the signature from another computer to her computer. The files/folders copied are signaturename.htm and signaturename_files directory. Outlook correctly identifies both the signature image, text and files however when inserting the signature the image is missing and there appears to be another box that appears (almost looks like a ActiveX control, or something else).

The user has already reconfigured her messages to all be written in HTML format from Rich Text Format.
