 Welcome to Everyday Tech Tips. I'm your host, Shelly Reid, coming to you from the Legal Services National Technology Assistance Project, or LSNTAP for short. This microcast will focus on quick tips and tricks that can be put into action to make your everyday work life easier. Let's get started. On today's episode of Everyday Tech Tips, we are continuing our discussion of email templates, those handy preset formats that can prevent having to recreate an email from scratch. Last week, we were in the Google Workspace and created Gmail templates. This week, we are focusing on Microsoft 365 and we will be creating templates for Outlook emails. In the Microsoft 365 version of Outlook, templates are available as an add-in. To get the add-in, click on the Home tab, then scroll over to the Get Add-ins button. Search for My Templates. In my case, our IT department has chosen to include templates when they install Microsoft 365, so My Templates appears on My Add-ins tab. But if needed, click on the Add button to install the My Templates add-in. Back in Outlook, open a new email, click on the Message tab and select More Options, then click on My Templates. A side panel will appear showing some standard templates provided by Microsoft. Scroll down to the bottom to find the plus sign and templates and click. In the title box, type a title for the template. Type for desired text in the larger box. Click Save. Your template now appears in the list. If you wish the template to include formatted text, simply type the text in the body of a new email and format as desired. Ctrl-A to select everything, then Ctrl-C. Go back to the Add Template button. Create a new template by pasting the text in. And now a template with formatted text appears in the list. To use a template, click in the body of an email. Let's start with a fresh one. Go over to More Options. Click on My Templates and scroll to the template that you want to use and click on it. And the text appears now in the body of the email. To edit a template, hover over the template and click on the Edit Template icon. Delete a template by hovering over the template until the trash can icon appears. When you click on it, that will delete the template. Be sure to check the show notes for step-by-step directions.
