OE file attachment access

[DougL]

I recently updated from Office 2000 to Office 2003 Pro.
When I attempt to view a Word or Excel attached file
directly in an Outlook Express 6.0 message, I get an
error message that the file cannot be found. If I save it
to my hard disk, I can then read the file. Can someone
help with a configuration fix perhaps?

Try posting in an Outlook Express group as it is not a part of Office, but
Internet Explorer.
