Unable to save GIF images as GIFs

[Ken]

Hello,

I sometimes receive animated GIF logos inserted directly within the
body of an e-mail (ie: via Insert: Picture : From File). I used to be
able to save them in GIF format but all of a sudden (perhaps it was
after I upgraded to Office XP) I am only able to save them as BMP's.

Is there a problem on my end or does Outlook not allow you to save GIF
images which have been inserted into an email as GIFs?

I have cleared my cache, and I do not have this problem in IE.

If anyone knows an answer to this, please help.

Ken

I too have been looking for a solution to this. Search in the group "Outlook General Questions" for "Saving desired embedded image _only_?" where I found a macro that would do the trick. It's not ideal but does the trick

No it won't; this program is to create gif-files not saving them from mail
