Mr. Holland, They are discussing adding or "embedding" a sound file into an e-mail message. This is something which was very popular some time ago. I would open an e-mail about a trip on a train and hear the train itself. At the time, I was using Outlook Express. Since Outlook is a business based application, I'm not sure it's possible to embed a sound file like that.

Exactly what do you mean by "embedding files" in the first place? If you mean inserting a file or files as attachments, certainly! You need to use the "Insert" menu. If you mean to have the contents of a file appear "inline" with the remainder message, I suppose it depends on the type of file being the source. I thought Outlook (not Outlook Express) provided an option to use MS-Word as the tool of composition; in that case any file you can embed into a Word document would likewise be the same for Outlook. You could always alter your composition tool to Outlook just for any messages you want to do this with, then set it back as it had been previously. HTH ------------ To You & Yours: A Very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year !!! Holland & Bill - "`There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I have not profited, I dare say,' returned the nephew. `Christmas among the rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round -- apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin, if anything belonging to it can be apart from that -- as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!'" - "A Christmas Carol," 1843, Charles Dickens For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
