Thanks for the reply. When a pdf is sent as an attachment to an email, I
normally open these attachments up inside of Outlook. For some reason,
when
attempting to open these files the default reader is Microsoft Picture
Manager vs. Adobe. When I attempt to right click on the attached pdf files
to
select an "open with option" this option is not available when inside
Outlook. However, it is available when the file is located on my desktop.
I
have been copying the attachments to my desktop then opening with Adobe.
Is
there a way to change the default to open a file when the pdf file is sent
via email in Outlook as an attachment.

In attempting to open a PDF file that is an attachment in an email in

but clicking on the PDF attachment, Microsoft Picture Manager is the
program
that attempts to open the file vs. Acrobe Reader. How to I change the
default
setting so Acrobe opens the file?
