I want to create a template to make an auto reply but I cannot figure out
how. The help file has nothing. What do I do????

Turn off Word as your email editor. Create a new message saying what you
want the reply to say. Use File | Save As to save it as an .oft file. See
http://www.slipstick.com/rules/autoreply.htm for more information.

You are awsome... No time to try it now, but you obviously knew what was
wrong.
Can I switch back to word as my editor after creating the oft file without
problems using the auto reply? I am assuming it should be ok, but ya never
know unless ya know!

Yes, you can switch back to WordMail later. You just need to turn if off so
you can use Outlook's File | Save As command instead of Word's.
