I have a htm doc designed in FrontPage and when I send it
to Outlook as the email message body, some of the pictures
are lost. The pictures are .jpg or .gif. I noticed in
FrontPage I include the path location but it doesn't save
it. Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks

Hi Cindy,
you don't actually want to send the pictures with the email - you'd link to
them with a full url, eg
<img src="http://you.com/images/pic.gif">

However Outlook 2003 defaults to not shoing images with emails so not
everyone will see them - but this is the best you can do

Cindy.

In order for the images to appear in the e-mail, the links have to point to a
public location such as a published web site.

The other option is to create the e-mail in Outlook or Outlook Express ( I
prefer Outlook Express ) with it set to compose in html mode, and then insert
the Images.
When done this way when the e-mail is sent, Outlook automatically embeds the
image into the e-mail in binary format.
