Hello,
My operating system is Windows XP Home SP2 using XP Office PRO/Outlook 2002
I have recently reformatted my drive and reinstalled XP. Updates are current.

When emailing a file image "email this file" from "My Pictures" folder I
dont get the automatic resizing option to make image file attachments
smaller. I would like to restore this option.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thankyou Malke for your response.
Ive downloaded the resizing tool.
I ve right clicked on a picture, selected the size I want, clicked ok BUT
NOTHING happens !? I dont get a resized copy of that pic. Please help

I have also checked to make sure automatic image resizing is enabled.
I would prefere this to work rather than the downloaded tool. . Any more Ideas
Thanks
