<DIV><FONT size=2>Hello again Jan,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>After re-reading your mail, think I finaly get the drift of 
your mail &quot;message as question&quot;.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Attachements are Objects(=usualy files) and they can get 
either </FONT><FONT size=2>Attached </FONT><FONT size=2>or be </FONT><FONT 
size=2>Inserted </FONT><FONT size=2>and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>can give </FONT><FONT size=2>the user the impression as though 
they are both file attachements. </FONT><FONT size=2>Which </FONT><FONT 
size=2>basicaly</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>is true, </FONT><FONT size=2>except for in the way in which 
the sender's program handled </FONT><FONT size=2>the Object </FONT><FONT 
size=2>at first.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>In my OE50 mail program, there are standard a few options 
given as in how I would like</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>the Object to be handled, before sending the 
mail:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>WorkMenu-TextBar:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insert|File 
Attachement</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insert|Text 
from File</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insert|Picture</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
Insert|Horizontal Line</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>WorkMenu-ButtonBar:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Button Attach (=same as 
Insert|File Attachement)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>EditorMenu-ButtonBar:&nbsp;&nbsp; Button Insert Horizontal 
Line(=same as Insert|Horizontal Line)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Button Create a HyperLink</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
Button Insert Picture (=same as Insert|Picture)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The way I go about this in general is to use the Attach-button 
for a file to be attached </FONT><FONT size=2>to the email.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Generaly speaking, then the file should(will) not show up in 
the body of the message.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Though, there are exceptions to this rule of not being 
visable, and that is with Picture or </FONT><FONT size=2>Text files</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>that are being attached. </FONT><FONT size=2>These files in 
particular, will then, in the mailprogram, be directly visable</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and also smoothly presented </FONT><FONT size=2><FONT 
size=2>right below the </FONT><FONT size=2>original mail, in the </FONT>PreView 
Window</FONT><FONT size=2>. Since there</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>are no special breaks given, it looks then as though the 
attachement(s) are then &quot;one with the mail&quot;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and somehow, at the bottom end, placed in the body of the 
message. This is a bit misleading, as</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>you are actualy looking at the mail in the body of the message 
and at another, now attached file.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Here, when I receive an attachement that is usually not 
directly visable, eg like a particular program</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>file (</FONT><FONT size=2>like DLLs or Drivers), then I must 
SAVE AS to disk </FONT><FONT size=2>first, before I can have a look at it. The 
way</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>these attachements are presented and noticable that they excist as part of 
the mail is done with</DIV>
<DIV>t<FONT size=2>he </FONT>precense of a paperclip-button shown on 
the&nbsp;PreViewWindowMenu-ButtonBar or with a paper-clip</DIV>
<DIV>as a thumbnail picture seen in one of the Downloaded Messages' columns. 
This then implements that</DIV>
<DIV>these particular mails have attachements and are accompanied by other 
files.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>So, for you to have an attachement:</DIV>
<DIV>- only visable in the body of the message, I will have to click</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;&nbsp; Button Insert Picture (=same as Insert|Picture)</DIV>
<DIV>- only presented as &quot;in a rectangular box at the bottom of the 
email&quot;, I will have to click </DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;&nbsp; Button Attach (=same as Insert|File Attachement)</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>From memory, I am quite sure that the Netscape program works the seem way, 
eg has the same options</DIV>
<DIV>available for sender/user.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>

  <DIV><FONT size=2>Hello Jan, actualy that is how Netscape presents it to 
  you.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>All I do in Outlook Express(OE5) overhere is to click 
  Attach|&quot;Filename&quot;.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>Then when I click on &quot;Send&quot; the mail gets also 
  visable in the preview window, same</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>as yours &quot;it ends up within the body of my email, 
  already open&quot;.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>1-On arrival at your end(and as I have worked with Netscape 
  2.2 before) can sort of</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>imagine what you mean with that square box at the bottom 
  mentioning the filename</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>of the attachment.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>2-On arrival at my end, any attached file is visable in the 
  preview window. This is as there</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>are a few&nbsp;options available for me to have it this way, 
  which I applied, or even have it set</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>as a slide-show or not set at all.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>I suppose if you want the attachement to be directly visable 
  in your preview window,</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>that either you will have to upgrade to a newer(preferably 
  the latest available) version</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>or that you will have to go into the Netscape's program 
  settings. But from that I cannot</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>remember much anymore.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>Know that Netscape does have a good support-site, with 
  Articles available for answering</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>&quot;anyone's questions&quot;. If your question is included 
  here, I don't know.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>Otherwise on the List there are quite some Netscape users, 
  so try also that as a source.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>Last (or first) resort would be to also try any of the 
  Netscape MailNEWS groups, available</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>from </FONT><FONT size=2>your Internet Service 
  Provider(ISP). </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>Sorry I cannot help you further on this.</FONT></DIV>

Have also tried this.  I run 3 monitors from 1 pc.  The only fudge to make it
happen is to expand the metastock "parent" window across 2 monitors and have 2
different charts/layouts as "child" windows on seperate monitors.

One possible way around it would be to have 2 sessions of metastock running at
the same time - but equis do not allow this.   Within win95 I can run 2
sessions of Excel but not Metastock.  Anyone know how to achieve this?
