Re: Opening excel files in Outlook 7

If you're really using Outlook, not Outlook Express nor Windows Mail nor
Windows Live Mail, you may be experiencing issues with Outlook's Secure
Temporary Folder. Try navigating to this folder and deleting it's contents.

Attachments remain in the Outlook Secure Temporary File folder when you exit
Outlook 2003
