From: DiLynn on 25 Mar 2010 09:51 I have tried to find a download to add just the simple smiley faces to my outlook express messages (6) but have been unsuccessful. I have also seen them come through on word documents from others to myself. I also have Office Prof '07. How can I get these ? I don't want all the fancy ones that give you 200 or so, just the different smiley's. Thanks

Thanks Emoticon are just text strings, so enter the text that you want to use for the emoticon. >;-> For what text strings are commonly used to express different emoticon, there are plenty of sites that list them and Google still works: http://www.google.com/search?q=emoticon Even if your e-mail client displays cutsy little images for emoticons, they are still just text strings. That means they may only look like those text strings in the recipient's e-mail client. Whether the recipient has an e-mail client that supports emoticon transliteration (from text string to graphic image) depends on what e-mail client that recipient uses and if they have it configured to show the images (since parsing could make emoticons out of text that wasn't meant to be an emoticon). You won't know if the recipient will see an image or text string for the emoticon text string that you enter into your message.

Maybe yes, maybe no. Some of Windows' font sets contain a few smileys, like this one: ☺ It's U+263A in the Arial font, in case it doesn't show. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
