Hi i am having a real problem in outlook 2003 with attachments that are called resume.doc
I am running XP pro and it will not ever let me open these attachments. Does anyone know what may be the cause of this?
Thank you in advance!!

Looks like two mods at work at the same time. While I was closing this one, Statica was deleting the other! Oops!

Are you sure that it's not resume.doc.exe or something like that? Remember that Windows hides file extensions for known file types by default. Outlook doesn't block .doc files, but it sure does block .exe files. You can unhide the extensions in your folder options (View tab), and I highly recommend that everyone do this.
