Email this file - choose profile?

[Guest]

"Hi. I used to resize my photos through HP Photosmart Essential but recently
started having problems with it not recognising Outlook Express. Working on
this with HP however this made me look at alternatives and I found the
function in XP to resize photos. However it wants me to "choose profile" and
I don't understand what this is or what to do. I prefer to use Outlook
Express but will consider other alternatives. It could be that the HP and
the XP problems are related. I have checked my profiles (as much as I know
how) and they are set to Outlook Express. Help please.

Thank you for the work around - excellent power tool and exactly what I
needed. Doesn't actually fix my original problem but since I don't need it
anymore I shall forget it - until it appears again somewhere else.

Many thanks - really helpful

Sounds like your default mail profile is set to Outlook, not OE.... ?

That "choose Profile" message refers specifically to Outlook, not Outlook
Express. Outlook Express uses a different term.

So, somewhere, you've got Outlook selected as the default mail handler.
Also, in Control Panel, Mail, Profiles, you're probably set up to "Prompt
for a profile to be used".

Try going into Internet Explorer, Tools, Options, Programs, and look there.
