Hi, never seen this before but never really worked in a mixed environment
before.
We have a couple of users who use Mac OS X and the native email client.
Whenever I send them something from Excel, it hangs their mail client.
Doesn't matter if I send an XLS as an attachment or if I copy & paste a
range out of a sheet. They have to do a Force Quit on the email app, then
restart it and delete my mail without opening it.
Both Macs have Office Mac installed, so MIME type is probably not a problem
- or is it? Also, my current workaround is to do a Shift-Copy and paste
into email (I use Outlook 2003) as a picture. Then, of course, it's no
problem but kinda defeats the purpose of copying data in from Excel if they
can only look at it.
Another option might be to save the worksheet as HTML or even PDF. Ick.
Has anyone (esp. from MS) heard of this, and can you make a suggestion?
Try it and let me know if you break your Mac email client as well.
