These snippets of predefined content are not limited to text only - they can include images, tables, graphics, and formatting. Quick Parts were introduced in Outlook 2007 as a more versatile replacement for AutoText from previous versions. Microsoft defines this feature as 'building blocks'. Outlook Quick Parts is a gallery of reusable pieces of content that you can quickly insert into your email messages as well as appointments, meeting requests, contacts, and tasks. Not only will they save you a surprising amount of time, but also introduce consistency and accuracy in your emails. Do you still do it the long and tedious keystroke way? In this case, you'll certainly find Quick Parts very useful. Like many Outlook users, you may often need to send the same text over and over again - new offers to your business partners, replies to prospective clients, reports to supervisors, and so on.
The tutorial shows how to create reusable pieces of content for Outlook emails by using Quick Parts, AutoText and Shared Templates.
