Hi. I have almost no idea about Visual Basic (but I will have to learn a little bit for the following task, I think!): I have an Excel spreadsheet with names and other information, let's say First Name, Last Name, Country and Height. What I want is to be able to run a Macro or something in Outlook's compose window and a prompt box should be displayed to the user. The user types in the name of a person (First name and Last name), preferably all in one, and then the spreadsheet is searched through and all the information for that person: their name, country and height - are inserted into the email, perhaps in a table. The program would also need to check with the user if more than one person with that name is found, which one they want (eg. "Do you want the John Smith who lives in New York?", and if not, "Do you want the John Smith who lives in Texas?", etc.). Does anyone know of anything like this, have any ideas how something like this could be programmed or have any other tips? Thanks very much.

Hi. Sorry if this is obvious but... How do you include a flash movie on a webpage without IE making you click on it to 'activate the object'? It's just a simple flash movie that contains buttons with GetURLs to pages on the same site. Any ideas?!! Thanks!
