Insert WAV in EMail

[George W. Barrowcliff]

How can I insert a wav file in an email so it plays when the message is
opened?

I recorded a happy birthday and want it to play when opened.

TIA

Hi,

This functionality is no longer available due to security risks. Video and sound insertion features on the Web Tools toolbar used ActiveX controls in order to play video or audio.
Unfortunately these controls were not secure. For security reasons SP2 disables these controls.
