Outlook 2007 - Office 2007 - Exchange 2003
When I receive an *.xls file as an attachnent and attempt to open from
outlook it says 'file not found'. I does cause excel to open however. Also
it will let me save the file and then it will open just fine. It will also
let me preview the file direct from Outlook. Please Help...

Thank you Brian but it did not work. Any other suggestions? Also the
folder only had 2 things in it.

The number of items in the folder doesn't matter, it's the size of the
attachments. Is it only Excel attachments that won't open or all attachments?
