Sorry, I misread your message. Since virus writers can write viruses to activate when an e-mail is opened, I'm sure it can be done, but it is beyond the capability of Outlook to accomplish this. -----Original Message----- From: Glenda Wells [mailto:gwells@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 9:44 AM To: 'mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [mso] Re: Sound in Outlook Thanks but not exactly what I meant. I don't want sounds when I receive email. I want to send a sound to someone and have the sound play when the email is opened by that person. I know how to send a sound that the recipient would have to open manually...wanted something automatic. I'd already done a search of Microsoft's Knowledge base but couldn't find anything. Thought all you really smart people might know something. -----Original Message----- From: Glenda Wells [mailto:gwells@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 8:44 AM To: 'mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [mso] Sound in Outlook how can a sound be put into outlook so it plays when the email is opened? ************************************************************* PLEASE READ!!!!
