Joe:
Can't tell if anyone else responded to this, so here goes:
Most recent flavors of Windows do not display extensions of"known file types"
by default. Windows suppresses this display unless you turn iton. To display
extensions in XP: 1) open Windows explorer to any folder 2) click Tools-Folder
Options 3) click on the View tab 4) scroll down the Advanced settings list to
find the entry "Hideextensions for known file types" and uncheck the checkbox
for thisentry 5) click Apply and OK. All file extensions should now display
inany Explorer window.

From one source I get Attached .sxw text files that
work fine. The .sxc spreadsheet attachments comes
from another source (another sender). In both cases
the extensions show up in the original E-mail itself
When I open the attachments to the E-Mail with the
.sxw attachemnts, they open fine. When I open the
attachments to the E-Mail with the .sxc attachments,
the .sxc file extension is gone. In both cases I used
the same opening procedure. With this new
information, can anyone say what the problem is?
How do I find the file extension preferences to see
what they are set at?
