||| Dear All:
|||
||| How do I insert an animated GIF in the body of an e-mail in Outlook
||| 2007? It worked in Outlook 2003.
|||
||| In both HTML & Rich Text Format, I used the Insert Picture function
||| which placed the GIF in the body of the e-mail. However, it was
||| not animated. How do I make it work properly?
|||
||| Thank you, MGP
