I have been using Outlook Express to read my newsgroups for years, I have
used the combing and decoding feature with no problems until recently.

Now when I combine and decode instead of getting a file with the item, i get
a display of the code in the item. I think it is a setting somewhere, but I
cant seem to find or fix the problem.

Can anyone offer any assistance?

Thanks in advance

I have also used this feature in the past with great success.. But now when
I use it all I get is the last message in the block to be combined
in a single message
I would like some suggestions as well.. Was the feature killed with SP2
perhaps? Or is there an options switch somewhere?

I am using express for my newsgroups, and have SP2 installed, with no
problems combing and decoding. What you are descriping will happen if you
dont have all the arts of the file selected when C&Ding. In other words part
1 through 10 of a pot must all be selected. If your News provider has lousy
probegation or lousy post retention you might be missing some of the parts
on the server.
