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.

Glenda-
In Outlook 2000, go to Tools>Options>E-Mail Options>Advanced E-Mail options,
and in the section "When new items arrive", check the "Play a Sound" box. If
it still does not play a sound, you need to set up the sound in Windows.

(This is a Windows procedure, but it is necessary to answer your Outlook
question, so I will risk the WRATH OF LINDA and answer it.) Go to
Start>Settings>Control Panel and click on the Sounds icon. Scroll down
through the sounds to find "New Mail Notification" and assign a sound to it.
The default sound is notify.wav, but you can assign any sound to it. Parker
