Hi David; I changed the subject line to reflect that we are working with * imbedded * sound files and not just a sound file in a regular attachment. Take care. Mike

If they are clear enough I'll go ahead and post them on the server: I await your thoughts. *** Below are the steps on saving an imbedded sound or picture file using Outlook Express: To extract the sound or picture file; 1. Press control, shift, + O for the options menu. 2. Control + tab to the read tab. 3. Check the box read all messages in plain text. 4. press enter. 5. Now, open the email, press Insert +A to open the attachment, & the song will then appear in the Attach field as a file that can be saved just like any other attachment. To save the sound or picture file: 1. Go to the file menu and choose save attachments as & press enter. 2. Browse to where you want to save the sound or picture 3. tab down to save, press enter, and you're done. Sometimes there might be more than 1 file in the attachment so, you will have to play around a little bit to get the 1 selected that you want to save. *** David Ferrin Most people don't know what they're doing and a lot of them are really good at it.
