Default how do i set up outlook to automaticly open atachments

ive found that in outlook you have to double click on the attachment, then
you have to answer the question and uncheck the box every time. i want to set
it up to where it does like outlook express. where you dont have to click
attachments, the pictures are already opened

Outlook does not support this feature!

By design, Outlook does not display attached images inline. Outlook is a
business application. OE is targeted to consumers and the needs of the two
groups are different in this area. Exchange Administrators consider inline
display a security issue and don't want it.

Outlook only shows images inline with HTML mail items or RTF mail items with
OLE embedded images. Images in plain text mail items only show as
attachments (that you can open or save).

Outlook is geared to the business user, not personal/home users, and as such
is a more secure e-mail client. If Outlook did what you ask, its users
would also have been afflicted with the WMF-Exploit whose attack vector is
through the e-mail client to get at the defective graphics rendering engine
in the OS.
