does anyone have a freeware patch or file which will allow me to read
attachments to my email. I have tried MS knowledge base and have added an
entry to registry exactly as instructed to do..with no noticeable effect. I
am able to open and read pdf's but little else.

any tip would be helpful alhtough I am not optomistic about me successfully
achieving even rudimentary improvements absent a self installing file of
somekind which will do it for me...

sometimes it is discouraging...

And its not working, youve done it wrong. It definately works.

Norm,

If you wish to receive and read attachments in OE (outlook express) goto
Tools | Options | Security and un-click the Do Not Allow Attachments to be
saved or opened that could be a virus.

I wana to thank everyone who helped me. Needless to say, my request for
help was wrong. The error message had something to do with "forms" . I
mudded about "on my own" and found some potential knowledge base help but
not the REAL help I acutally I needed.

One of these days I will ask for help correctly. when I referred to outlook
xp I was referring to outlook 2002 not oe...

Again, thank everyone for your generous efforts. I'll try again when I can
find the exact error message...
