For now, click on Tools, then Options, then Read. If there is a checkmark in the box before Read all messages in plain text, click on this box, then Apply. Click on OK. |

If so, are you able to save the attachment, then open the saved document outside of Windows Mail? -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "frd5116@xxxxxx" <frd5116@xxxxxx@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:96ECF5BE-A5B6-4760-BEE1-8EBD6AEE18C2@xxxxxx Quote: >I cannot open an attachment ending in .xls. error states ' file does not > have a program associated with it" i tried to create an association but > still cannot open the spreadsheet. what am i doing wrong? > > Fred |
