I have a document in rtf format that I want to use as a message

I can't find a way to do this. Can SM handle this? Using 2.0.5 on a
Windows XP box.


May be with a copy/paste

Good thought.  I found the template capability, and cutting and pasting 
the text into a template has worked like a charm.


Thanks.

A couple of other thoughts and tips;

The SM composer does a great job with copy/paste from a number of 
sources... for example, copy excel contents or other office tables and 
they will convert into good html tables.


You can use the SM web page composer to pre-prepare complex message 
templates... that interface gives you more tools and options than the 
html composer in the email client, then simply copy all from the 
composer, and paste into a message template.


While Office and other programs can generate html output, they generated 
huge amounts of useless junk html code in the background source code, 
so, copy paste has a distinct advantage over importing html generated 
by those sources.

Thanks -- I hadn't thought of that!  Admittedly, I don't use Composer 
for much.  Maybe this is my chance to learn more about it.
