Attachements in Body of Mail - Possible?

[Scooby Jones]

Hello All

Work have recently upgraded our laptops and I know have Outlook 2003.

In my previous version (cant recall which one sorry) I could insert a file
attachement (pdf, doc or xls) within the body of the text, now I can only
insert them as an attachement away from the text.

In my emails I like to say to users, for example, the reuslts can be found
here :-

(FILE GOES HERE)

Is this not possible in Outlook 2003 (I am sending mails in HTML format
too).

Many thanks for any answers ;o)

Carl.

CHange your message format to rich-text instead of HTML or plain text. But note that only Outlook recipients will be able to access attachments if you do that.

Rich Text worked perfectly - Thank you ;o)

I am only sending mail internally to other Outlook users so this solutions
should be perfect.

Thanks again.

You need to change to Rich Text Format for your mails - but be warned - if
you send mails with attachments to non-Outlook users in RTF, then they won't
be able to see the attachment.
