Word Attachments Opening as "Read-Only" from Preview Pane

M

Martin

We have started to use Outlook 2003 and have noticed that all word
document attachments when opened from the preview pane in Outlook
(open document by double clicking on the attachement icon in the
preview pane), open in a "Read-Only" mode. When you open the message
and open the attachment from inside the message it will open normally.
This is adding an additional step to our business process which is
quite annoying.

Does anyone know of any settings that can affect this behavour? We
would like to open word attachments in an editable mode directly from
the preview pane.

This did not happen in Outlook 2002.

Thanks in advance!

Martin
