How can I see the attached picture in a _View_ in Contacts? Peter NAGY 23.08.2006 10:14:02 I inserted pictures to contacts, but I couldn't see them in a "Detailed Address Cards" view. The only result is that, it can be published if the contact has an attachment or not. (Yes/No) but no image. MS Office Outlook 2003, SP2

Outlook 2007 is the first version to display pictures in a folder view. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Peter NAGY" <Peter NAGY[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:ABB3E3E4-B10B-424C-9D27-ED3B4EC6ACC6[ at ]microsoft.com...

RE: How can I see the attached picture in a _View_ in Contacts? jtormey 25.09.2006 20:05:02 Peter, I had the same problem with 2003. Couldn't even find the photo I supposedly inserted into a contact. But I found a trick that seems to work. Open the photo in Paint. I had saved mine in PNG format and it worked; can't say about others. Now using the dotted box "Select" button, pick a point in the photo, left click and hold down, drag to frame as much of the photo as you want. Let go of the left click, move the cursor to the middle of the selected area, right click, click "copy." Go to Outlook, open the contact you want, under the general tag there's a large unlabeled white box to the right which is I guess for general notes. Left click in that box. Right click and select paste. Bingo! you've got a photo and not a link to a phot. You can even resize it by left clicking and dragging. I don't know if you can do this in all formats but Paint let's you save in PNG and I know that works.
