Can't open Word email attachments in Outlook
I have been using Office 2003 for a year. At one point I tried to follow some
directions for anti-spam setup and ever since then I cannot open a Word attachment directly from email. I have to save the attachment to the hard drive first. Also, my Word icon changed on the attachments from the usual "W' to an icon that looks like a notepad - it has blue lines on the left hand side and a red piece on the lower right hand corner. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Note - I can open Excel attachments with no problem. |

It is never a good idea to open attachments directly from e-mail messages,
so this is no bad thing. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Cincyforyou wrote: I have been using Office 2003 for a year.
