I have OE6 running on XP Home. When I create an email in HTML format and
then attempt to insert a picture (Insert/Picture), I get the dialog that
lets you 'browse' for the picture. When I click the 'browse' button, the
picture selection dialog appears. All appears to be OK, but when I attempt
to use the dialog nearly every button on the dialog won't work. About the
only thing I can do is navigate to various folders by clicking them in the
folder display. I can't 'Cancel' or even close the browse window with the
'X'. The only way I've found to get out of the situation is to use Task
Manager to force OE to close. The 'browse' dialog window even appears to be
cut off just above the bottom border.

Can anyone shed any light on this problem and give me a clue how to fix?

Thanks,
Harry

Try creating a new identity, switch to the new identity and create an
account for mail and test its ability to insert a graphic file. You may
have a damaged registry entry for your existing identity.
