| 428643 | 2006-02-09 03:10:00 | I used to be able to click on an Outlook 2003 attachment and it would quickly open in PhotoImpact 10 or whatever way it was sent. Now, it will only open in PhotoExplorer which means a complicated switch to a different folder for each and every attachment. How do I get back to where I was? I can't find anything on Outlook which allows me to specify how attachments are received. Any help much appreciated. |

| 428645 | 2006-02-09 03:19:00 | As far as I understand it, Outlook will open attachments according to which application you have assigned to a particular file type. I guess it is possible that somehow your preferred application for this sort of file has got changed. Right click on a file that is of concern to you, and go to Properties. You will see "Opens with..." and then the application assigned to that file type. There is a Change button where you can change the application. Hope that is the solution! |
