Open picture attachments in Office Picture Manager

D

DamienP

When I receive an attachment that is a picture (jpg, bmp, etc) in outlook
2003 and I try to open it from the email, MS office picture manager opens and
then just displays the red x, like the same red x that you get when graphics
are missing from websites. I can save the graphic attachment from the email,
to say my desktop, and then open it from there, but I can't directly open the
graphic from within the email. I can only view it by saving it first. Any
ideas why I can't open the picture from email in outlook 2003? (using windows
xp-sp2 and ms office 2003 sp1).

So far i have tried Detect & Repair with no success, reinstalled office and
cleaned out the Temporary Internet Files with now success.

What has worked is re-doing hte roaming Profile. However, after a few weeks
it has occurred again. No other software installs or system settings have
changed since.

Thanks
Damien

Associate the files with a different viewer, Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
might be a better choice. Right-click any image, properties, opens
with...change.
