RE: Opening excel attachments (only excel)
FWIW: I have the same exact problem. I tried the same steps as you. The only other thing to try which I hadn't is to clear Office totally off & re-install from scratch (my user didn't want the downtime - so I havent tried that yet) Jeff -Original Message- From: Mathews, James E.
