Default Can Outlook 2003 automatically process an attachment?

Not natively but there are third-party tools that will do it. See if you
can find something he http://www.slipstick.com/addins/auto.aspc

Hi there,

I realise this question flies in the face of security but is there a way
to
have Outlook 2003 automatically save a .pdf file in a specific folder when
opened?

We have 10 Technicians and we regularly send out a Company newsletter or
service bulletins to - originally created with Publisher but turned into a
.pdf file for ease of transmission and handling.

As the Techs are not totally computer literate is there a way we could
process this attachment so for example it would be saved to a specific
folder such as My Documents\Newsletters or something without them having
to
open it, select save, choose a location and then save it?

Failing that is there any alternative to automate this process to make it
as
easy as possible for them to store a copy in this specific directory?

Possibly use WinZip using the full pathname to extract to?
