| 602557 | 2007-10-17 20:52:00 | Hey all - Don't know if anyone else knows of this problem but it's bloody annoying and I would love to find out why this is happening. I receive a truck load of Excel documents each day. If I have a a Excel document open and try and open another one from a e-mail attachment - the box comes up with "Open or Save" I click open and it takes me to the Excel document I already have open but doesn't open the attachment. The only way to get the attch. open is to close any instances of Excel that are already there and then open it. Any ideas??? |

| 602559 | 2007-10-17 22:26:00 | When you open an excel file from within outlook without 1st saving the file to your HDD, the file is opened and saved to a temp folder. If you go to open another excel file without 1st saving the file already opened from the temp folder you will be prompted to save the 1st before the 2nd is opened..... make sense?...lol |
