SUMMARY
When creating a custom form in Microsoft Mail, adding an image field allows users to paste a bitmapped graphic from the Clipboard (or Scrapbook) into the Send Screen of the form once the form is installed.

If you add a bitmapped graphic to the Send Screen when the form is being created, use a graphic overlay to seal the image in the form.

For more information on how to use image fields and graphic overlays, see the Appendix &quot;Using Custom Forms in Microsoft Mail&quot; in the &quot;Microsoft Mail Network Manager's Guide.&quot;



MORE INFORMATION
For example, you can incorporate a company logo in the Send Screen of a custom form by doing the following:


 * 1) Create the logo in a graphics application.
 * 2) Copy the logo to the Clipboard.
 * 3) When you are editing the Send Screen of the custom form, paste the graphic anywhere in the Send Screen.
 * 4) Frame the imported logo with a graphic overlay. Once the form is installed, the logo of the company will be displayed every time a user selects this form to send a message.
