I am having the same problem as RMZ. I followed your advice but found that MS
Document Imaging is listed as a programme which I am supposed to have on my
computer already! I have the Small Business edition of Office 2007. However I
cannot open MDI attachments. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Office 2007 doesnt set MODI as the default application for .Tiff/Tif/Mdi
files.
This is by design.
If you wish to make it the default app for those file extensions copy the
following text into a .reg file and import it.
Please post back and let us know if this helps.

Hi Eric and thank you. It would be great to try this but I am not sure how to
create a .reg file or how to import it, as I am not a particularly
knowledgable computer user. As a guide, I do not know what programme to use
to create the .reg file or what to import the file into. Any help would be
appreciated.
Alternatively, if it is easier not to set the Document Imaging programme as
a default, is there some way that I can opt to use it when I need to? At the
moment when I try to open an mdi file, the Document Imaging programme is not
among the programmes listed as being available, so it cannnot be selected.
(The Document Imaging Programme is definitely on the computer as it is
listed under tools.)
Many thanks

If you wanted to right click and choose the program to open with...

First create a .txt file. (Right click desktop, goto new, choose text file.)
open the text file and paste the following into it and save the file and

Now hopefully you have file extensions set to show. If you do, the filename
of your text doc is probably like... new text doc.txt. If you have the .txt
at the end of the filename, great! ignore the next step....
If you don't see the .txt at the end of the filename..
Open my computer, click tools, and then folder options. Click on the "view"
tab. Look for and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file type"
Ok.. now the file should be named new text document.txt. right click the
file and choose rename, and rename the file to new text document.reg.
now double click the file and say yes to the prompt. Done!

Thank You so much. I used the process you described for changing the

I am having the same problem as RMZ. I followed your advice but found that MS
Document Imaging is listed as a programme which I am supposed to have on my
computer already! I have the Small Business edition of Office 2007. However I
cannot open MDI attachments. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
:
If you click on Start | All Programs | Microsoft Office 2007 | Microsoft
Office Tools, do you see "Microsoft Office Document Imaging" listed as a
choice? If not, then you need to add the feature to your installation
as described at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA012340671033.aspx .

GREAT TIP!!!
I have been muddling around for about 4 horus trying to figure out how to
find/reinstall MSO document Imaging and FINALLY garfield-n-oddie here, has my
vote as the "Numero Uno" tip on this. It only took me 5 minutes or less to
follow these simple instructions and get MSO document imaging up and
running--and without a reboot, to boot--HA! Muchas Gracias mi amigo(a).
