Hello, Robert. There are several different ways to make a e-greeting for e-mailing. The first is what you are trying to do - send an exe file. To get past security, you can rename card.exe to card.doc by right-clicking the filename then selecting Rename from the list of choices. Then attach the card.doc to your e-mail. Big drawback to this: Your recipient has to save card.doc, rename it back to card.exe, scan it with the virus program*, and then can finally play it. *unless the recipient is convinced that you created this exe from scratch with a reputable card-making program and did not get it from somewhere else from where its creator put a virus in it. In my opinion, most recipients would rather just delete the e-mail than go through this aggravation. So here are the other options for making easy-to-view e-mails. Please choose the one that you'd like to do. * create a PDF that can be viewed with Adobe Reader. * create JPGs that open automatically in the e-mail program. * create a webpage that you e-mail the link to. Only the webpage can contain animated effects. If you need examples to help you make your choice, let me know.
