Direct Access really sucks. Ever tried to store a few bitmaps in Direct Access?! The data file grows to enormous size and if I say enormous I mean ridiculously enormours. Then the program takes forever to load and operate. Last but worst, Direct Access cost 50 bucks while Phrase Express is free! I use PhraseExpress and praise it. Derrick Andrea, no thanks. Direct Access really sucks.

So, I lost all my auto-texts...so I tried again. Doesn't save them. Manual says the PHP file is in the phrase express folder,but in my case, it just never shows up. I've used Google's desktop search, and there is simply no PHP file related to praise express on my computer. I love this program. I just wish I could get it to save what I create!

Looks interesting. So I took a look at Outlook express to see if it could do the same. Well, yes it can ! Not all that Phrase express can, but it can easily paste commonly used phrases anywhere into the message. You can save them in Tools/Options/Signatures. The number of phrases seems to be unlimited (I saved more than 101 just to see). You can give them an explicit name, and you can even use the text of a txt file (that you may keep in a specific folder). Then when you write your message, and wherever you need to insert a phrase, just click on Insertion/Signature and make your selection. Whatever many people say, Outlook express is a great program with many useful fonctions that many users ignore. Personnally, I don't see any reason to change for another program, and I even strongly recommand it. Yes ! And please, don't strike ! Once again, you made me learn something, Martin. Thanks again !
