Copying animations from one email to another

[Guest]

At work, I used LOTUS NOTES. This lady and I exchange these little animated
figures, icons, etc. I emailed them home and have them saved.

I can see them in FULL COLOR AND ANIMATED in the original email they are
stored in; however, when I try and cut and paste them into NEW messages (as I
did all the time with LOTUS NOTES), I either get a RED X in a Box or
something that looks like a CLIPBOARD. When I tried a test and sent a messag
to myself, the animated characters were not there.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

One exception: someone sent me an email this morning and when I replied to
her, I was able to paste one of the animations into the return email. When I
checked my SENT messages, the animation was there.

I'm on WINDOWS XP using OFFICE 2003 PRO OUTLOOK for my email.

Thanks....NORM

Hi Norm,
Is your email formatted in HTML?

YEE-HAW. I switched it to HTML and it worked! Where do I send the thank you
gift.

One other question:

In my ADDRESS BOOK, I have two names that are listed in FULL NAME, FILE NAME
and DISPLAY as in a format that is "Last Name, First Name," as are all the
others in my address book.

For some reason, two of them, when you look at the list in the address book,
under NAME is is First Name then Last Name and under DISPLAY it is as I want
it, Last Name then First Name.

Any idea why these two entries are being stubborn?

Thanks....

NORM

Gifts aren't necessary, just adoration!

Not sure exactly why it's just two in your address book/contacts nor sorting
themselves properly, but follow these steps to see if it helps (if not, post
back):

By default names are sorted by "first name, last name". If you want to
change this to "last name, first name" do the following;

Go to Control Panel-> Mail-> E-mail Accounts-> View or change existing
directories or address books-> select Outlook Address Book-> Change.

At the bottom you can set the way the names are sorted.
