What if you have changed their document and want to reply.

Do i have to first save it, rework it, then upload it again?

Copy and paste does work, but when I press the reply button on an
e-mail with an attachment, shouldn't the new reply automatically have
the attachment placed in it by outlook? Is there some switch or
setting to make it automatic?

No. Outlook assumes that whomever you're replying to sent the
attachment to you and thus doesn't need to get it back.

yes, because you should never edit the temporary copy that opens when you
click on the attachment......

Well, then it's a different document, isn't it?

That's best. Save it, change it, then reply to the orginal message and drag
the changed document to the reply to attach it.

Hi there,
My main problem is that I HAVE TO USE a kind of REPLY WITH ATTACHMENT
OPTION in Outlook 2003. I dont have any kind of luxury to attach file
separately after replying. I am a TA in university and I need to send
120 students hw`s back to their addresses. So I cannot spend time on
attaching each document separately, it will kill me and my time.
Therefore I really and very urgently need a clue about how I can REPLY
WITH ATTACHMENT? It is truly very important for me that program
attaches the existing document to the replied message as well. I am
looking for some help. I will be truly very grateful.

Why would you reply with the attachment unless you've changed the attachment
and if you're changing the attachment the time it taks to reattach the
document is miniscule compared to the time it takes you to change the
document. I can't buy your argument as realistic.

However, even if it were, Outlook won't do what you want. You either have
to reply and take the time to reattach the document or you have to forward
and take the time of reentering the original sender's address again.
