I would like to highlight a bunch of photos and drag them over to the email body and have them inserted instead of attached. Apparently alot of people want this but of course Outlook has to make this as difficult as humanly possible.

If this is not practical, how about from explorer, I highlight and copy the images, then go to outlook and run a VBA macro that that performs all the steps automatically to take the photos from the clipboard and inserts them into the emaill. I do not really care if it changes the formats of the photos or whatever it does with them, I just want an easier way to embed multiple photos without having to use outlooks Insert-Browse-Spend time refinding the photos on the hard drive - etc.

Any help appreciated other than "Why do you want to ...."

Thank You

Oops I forgot to mention - I am looking for sample Outlook vba code to do this. I can program in excel but not outlook. I do not want to have to open excel first to execute a macro for outlook as that would not save any time or be helpful.
