| 537979 | 2007-04-03 08:28:00 | Evening all. Received a couple of emails with excel sheets attached, the trouble is I didn't have excel installed. I have since installed excel but when I try and open the attachments Outlook says that it has remove access to the unsafe attachments. How do I reastablish this acess?? Thanks Dave |

| 537981 | 2007-04-03 10:13:00 | Yes thats the message, not sure about playing with the registry..... | 4Lowie (10869) | ||
| 537982 | 2007-04-03 10:20:00 | Whoever sent it, will have to zip it then. Or tell the person to rename it before they send it, and u can rename it back to an excel file format. |

| 537983 | 2007-04-03 11:09:00 | I seem to recall playing around with this problem in an earlier version of Outlook than I am using a the moment (2003). I found that if I opened the original message containing the blocked attachments, clicked the <Forward> button and the attachments became available in the new message. I could then save the attachments to the hard drive. M$ may have closed that loophole by now - but might be worth a try... | johcar (6283) | ||
| 537984 | 2007-04-04 08:41:00 | Thanks all, the Forward option worked great. Thanks to those who replied. | 4Lowie (10869) | ||
| 537985 | 2007-04-04 16:10:00 | microsoft's idiotic 'security' lol blocking attachements created with their own programs.......it's annoying.... | drcspy (146) | ||
