O.K.,
I have a friend that has an issue that is driving us crazy.
Perhaps we are overlooking something, but we did a lot of checking.
When we open a .pps attachment in outlook express 6 we get a message that
there is no file association with that file and that we should go to the
folder options and associate a file to open that extension.
We checked it and the association is with Microsoft Powerpoint Viewer or
Microsoft Powerpoint which is the correct association.
We had downloaded before the "Powerpoint Viewer" and it has confirmed
installation.
IF we drag or save the attachment to the desktop and click on it, it will
open up normally with the Powerpoint viewer.
It just will not associate with Powerpoint when we try to open up the
attachment directly from the e-mail.
Unchecked is the "Do not allow attacvhments that may contain a virus" box in
options in OE.
Any Ideas???
