Resizing photos when emailing

G

Guest

In the past I have regularly emailed photos by following the steps below:
1. Launch Windows Explorer
2. Highlight the photos I want to send,
3. Right clicking and selecting the Send To -> Mail Recipient options

At that point I used to be offered the option of compressing photos before
they were sent. However in the last month or so this option seems to have
disappeared, and I can't find a way of restoring it.

I am using Windows XP SP2 and Outlook 2000.

Any suggestion gratefully received.

==================
Try this, maybe it will restore the option:

Go to...Start / Run and type
(or copy/paste):

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

A dialog box should report the following:

"DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded"

Belated thanks for this helpful response - it worked! Any ideas why I might
have lost this functionality in the first place?

============================
You're welcome.

Thanks for the feedback.

More than likely it was caused by a
program or update that was installed.
