Dear,
It seems you are opening the attachment in OL Reading preview - Open the
mail(double click on the mail) and then read the attachment.


Hope this helps you more
Regards
APK

Do not not open the attachment from the reading pane! First open the
mail (doubleclick) and then open the attachment.

....or, my preference: save the attachment to disk, and then open it in Word,
so you won't be working on a temporary copy of the file.
