Outlook not launching Excel for link in email message

H

HugoFirst

I'm diagnosing a problem for my boss. He gets an email ( in HTML
format ) which contains a link to an Excel spreadsheet on a webserver.
He clicks on the link, his screen flashes for a second. And nothing
else happens.

What I expected after the click is for IE to pop-up with the
spreadsheet displayed within it's frame.

He sent the email to me and when I click on it, it behaves exactly as
I expected.

Here's the rub, if he has an IE window already open and he clicks on
the link ( in the email message), it appears in the existing IE window.
The problem only occurs when there is no IE window already open.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!...
