I am wanting to know if there is a way to save Animated gifs that come in an
email when using Outlook 2003? I can forward the email to Outlook Express
and can save them with the animation. In Outlook the only option I have is
to save it as a BMP with no animation. Since Outlook 2003 is supposed to be
a better program than Outlook Express, I can't figure out why I am unable to
save them as gifs with animation.

Thanks in advance!
Sandra

MS Outlook makes it a little more difficult to save embedded graphics like
animated gifs. See
