Hi Katanya2000:
Since you wanted to do this thru OLE, here's the
procedure for that pesky MIDI music.
Rube Goldburg, Eat your heart out !
First from Outlook Express click "FILE" then "SAVE AS". Give it a name and select the location (Keep the .EML extension).
Now goto where you saved it and open in notepad (Wordpad if the whole thing is too big for notepad).
Here's the trick part:
Find in "Notepad or Wordpad" the lines that look like this:
------------------------------------------------
=_NextPart_000_00BC_01C18A0A.871215E0
Content-Type: audio/midi;
name="filename.mid"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: < 00b701c18a4d$865951c0$0100007f@default">00b701c18a4d$865951c0

------------------------------------------------
Now CUT the line that says CONTENT-ID and replace it with :
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="filename.mid" <--Note this can be any filename you like, just keep the .mid
It should now look like this:
=_NextPart_000_0026_01C2A8C3.DAD24E60
Content-Type: audio/midi;
name="filename.mid"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="filename.mid"
TVRoZAAAAAYAAQAYAMBNVHJrAAACxgD.........
------------------------------------------------
Now save; if from wordpad select "TEXT FILE".
Double click saved .eml file to open in Outlook Express
and the song now shows up as an attachment and not making the annoying noise.
I haven't tried it but possably you could do similar with the .GIFs or .JPGs
