| | Attaching Pictures from Windows Photo Gallery Folder Windows Vista Premium. I'm able to select a Photo in Windows Photo Gallery and click Email which attaches the photo to a blank email. I can then fill in the Address and words...and send it. \ But.....I can't seem to Create the email, then click the "attach paper clip icon" and open Windows Photo Gallery to select the photo for the attachment. I'm sure it's obvious I'm not very sharp with this stuff but I'm hoping someone can give me a simple method to do this. All else seems to work OK with Vista and Windows Vista Mail. Thanx bobg |

| | Re: Attaching Pictures from Windows Photo Gallery Folder Windows Photo Gallery does not come into play when attaching via Windows Mail. After clicking the paper clip you need to navigate to the file you want. -- *Report back, please* "bobg" <bganon@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:8CE937F8-24F8-486F-9E6C-0B99F92C9CD5@xxxxxx Quote: > Windows Vista Premium.

| | Re: Attaching Pictures from Windows Photo Gallery Folder I finally figured it out. Dumb of me. As you suggested I navigated to Explore, then Programs, Windows Photo Gallery, and was able to select the photo file I waanted. Thanks for your response, Bob. Very much appreciated. bobg "bobg" <bganon@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:8CE937F8-24F8-486F-9E6C-0B99F92C9CD5@xxxxxx Quote: > Windows Vista Premium.

| | Re: Attaching Pictures from Windows Photo Gallery Folder You're very welcome. Thanks for your feedback. FWIW I don't think you should be saving any kind of documents in a sub-folder of a program. I'm not sure why, except that it just doesn't "feel" right. The Pictures folder is more likely the place for it and you can create sub-folders to help you organize your photos. They will still open with WPG by default if that's what you want, or you can change the default to a photo editing program. -- *Report back, please* "bobg" <bganon@xxxxxx> wrote in message news 37590D0-4610-4921-B963-451C792B566D@xxxxxxQuote: >I finally figured it out.
