help attaching files

[Uncle Vinnie]

Hi...

Using XP Pro and Outlook 2003.

For some odd reason, I am unable to attach files when sending emails.

Click on the 'paperclip', window opens to the My Doc folder. then when I
click on a sub folder to open, nothing happens... finally, a Microsoft Word
window opens that it is unable to open....

It is almost as if it is trying to launch Word to open the folder...

Help?

Thanks!

FWIW, from the Microsoft side a new Knowledge Base Article (KBA) was
released on Apr 15th.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=918165

It lists two known conflicts so far.
