Martin, Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried pointing the good OTRS at the DB of bad and it also couldn't view attachments correctly. Could I have selected a character set option in my perl module installations that stores the attachment in a form that allows the attachment to be forwarded but not viewable in excel or word? Just don't want to make the same mistake again. Nigel

So it is not > the DB. It looks like you changed something in the OTRS application on the bad server. Just change the OTRS application (good server -> bad server) and it should work. > Regards, > Nigel Clarke Martin Edenhofer -- ((otrs.de)) :: OTRS GmbH :: Norsk-Data-Str. 1 :: 61352 Bad Homburg http://www.otrs.de/ :: Manage your communication! _______________________________________________ OTRS mailing list: otrs - Webpage: http://otrs.org/ Archive: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/otrs To unsubscribe: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs Support oder Consulting fÃr Ihr OTRS System? => http://www.otrs.de/
