ArtChess 0 Junior Poster in Training

hello! if anyone can assist me or direct me in the correct direction that would be great! And thank you in advance.

My situation is::

O/S = Windows XP sp 2 on laptop IBM T41 or T23 or T42
Application Lotus Notes version 5
Problem::
When a user has an email opened and he clicks on "Reply with History" the new memo doesn't copy over the 'history' (the body of the email) instead just creates a new memo that is blank, as if he just clicked on Reply.

The only time that it works is when he clicks "Reply with hisotry" on an email that has a file attached to it.

has anyone here seen this type of problem and knows the fix? i have checked google to no avail.
the issue started about a week or so ago...it used to work fine.

Thank you.
