Disregard my last. I did it wrong. It works now.

Thanks much.

If all the file that you created in Notepad has is word "Raoul", that
won't work. You need to include the HTML code to specify the font.

What you can do is open Notepad, then copy/paste the following line into
it:

<DIV><FONT face="Brush Script MT" size=4>Raoul</FONT></DIV>

Save the file with an HTM file name (e.g. Raoul.htm)

Then go in OE to Tools, Options, Signature, select File and then Browse
to the Raoul.htm file
