Cannot open the attachment xls

I can't open xls attachment.  He tells me to choose the program I want to use to open the file and then nothing happens.   Any ideas?

You must have Excel (part of Office) or an intstalled of Excel Viewer on your computer to read .xls files...

And you must set your file Associations, so that the .xls files get opened by Excel.

Here is the download link for Microsoft Excel Viewer free:

http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=1CD6ACF9-CE06-4E1C-8DCF-F33F669DBC3A&displaylang=en

Excel Viewer open, view, and print Excel workbooks, even if you don't have Excel installed. This download is a replacement for Excel Viewer 97 and all previous Excel Viewer versions.

And to set file Associations:

  • Cannot open the attachment sent with Outlook Express

    I have Windows XP.  I use my processor Works 8.  He worked for many years, suddenly it doesn't.  When I create and send a document using Outlook Express, the receiptant cannot open it.  It is the standard verbiage that works may not support, the file can be used by another application, etc. After much frustration, I find now that if the document is sent attached to Outlook Express cannot be opened from the accessory, it can be opened if the receiptant saves the attachment to its documents and open it from there (which becomes tedious).  I have now discovered that if I send the document as an attachment by using a free email program from Yahoo (Rocketmail) it can be opened from the attachment.  The problem seems to imply of Outlook Express.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  • RTE de LV cannot open the project files that include references .lvlib in dependencies

    I am writing a DLL LabVIEW to inspect the LabVIEW project files, and I noticed that if a project has a .lvlib reference in its dependencies, then the Run-Time Engine is contradictory on whether or not he can find the project file:

    • Project.Open returns error 7 (file not found)

    • Project.GetFileLVVersion is a success

    Here are some excerpts from my code of G and C engaged in this behavior:

       int openStatus = StatusSuccess;
    char * projectVersion = createStringWithLength (VersionStringLength);

    printf ("Analysis %s\n", pathchaine);
    OpenProject (pathchaine & openStatus, projectVersion, VersionStringLength);
    printf (" project written in LabVIEW %s\n", projectVersion);

    If (openStatus is StatusSuccess)
    {
    printf (" Open the project file.") \n") ;
    }
    on the other
    {
    printf("Error: could not find Project file, or file was not a Project file (Error code %i).\n», openStatus);")
    }

    However, when running in the development environment, the two methods are successful.

    Is this a bug, and if so, is it fixed in 2014 of LabVIEW?

    Here's how you can reproduce:

    Prerequisites:

      1. LabVIEW 2013 SP1 32-bit

      2. ConEmu for a good console- https://code.google.com/p/conemu-maximus5/wiki/Downloads

      3. minGW for compilation of a program to use the LabVIEW - http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files DLL

    reference .lvlib to break dependencies Project.Open in LV RTE

      1. Open the attachment in a temporary directory (e.g. c:\xtra\temp)

      2. Open "OpenProject.lvproj" in LabVIEW.

      3. Build 'Open library project'.

      4. ConEmu with a bash command prompt, navigate to the temporary directory.

      5. Type make

    $ make
    patch the file "builds/platdefines.h.
    GCC - std = c99 g OpenProject.c o OpenProject.exe - lOpenProject - Lbuilds

    6. type "c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj" OpenProject

    OpenProject $ 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj '.
    Analysis c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj
    Project written in LabVIEW 13.0
    Open the project file.

    7. the opinion that both call nodes execute correctly.

    8. type "c:\xtra\temp\OpenProjectWithLvlibDep.lvproj" OpenProject

    OpenProject $ 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProjectWithLvlibDep.lvproj '.
    Analysis c:\xtra\temp\OpenProjectWithLvlibDep.lvproj

    Here's another way to trigger this behavior, which shows that LabVIEW occasionally Range the element dependencies:

      1. Open "OpenProject.lvproj" in LabVIEW.

  • Add to the project a new VI and place the constant path of file "Application Directory" his block diagram.

  • Select ""leader "Save All (this project)" and use the default name for the new VI.

  • Type 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj' OpenProject

  • Notice that there is a mistake once again, as is expected.

  • Remove the "Application Directory" path of file constant

  • Select ""leader "Save All (this project)"

  • Type 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj' OpenProject

  • Note that the problem has disappeared, as is expected.

  • Add the "Application Directory" path of file constant in the block diagram.

  • Select ""leader "Save All (this project)"

  • Type 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj' OpenProject

  • Notice there is no problem, which is surprising, because that there should be a mistake because the dependencies item was not tidy.

  • Close the new VI and pull out of the project.

  • Select ""leader "Save All (this project)"

  • Open "OpenProject.lvproj" in a text editor.

  • Note that the dependencies item was put away.

  • Add VI back to the project.

  • Select ""leader "Save All (this project)"

  • Type 'c:\xtra\temp\OpenProject.lvproj' OpenProject

  • Notice that there is a mistake once again, as is expected.

    The same behavior occurs in LabVIEW RTE: a new project with a constant of the Application in an empty vi directory will return an error 7 - file not found, but still return the correct version of LabVIEW in which the project was created.

    I did experiment with workarounds for this problem, and I found a.

    When I used to get the path of LabVIEW libdir in the ini of the executable file, execution is able to load and inspect the project file.

    LIBDIR = 'C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\LabVIEW 2013'

    While it is expected that a stand-alone executable can be placed on a system that does not have the LabVIEW IDE, it is still surprising to me that the execution engine cannot find standard library of LabVIEW without some explicit guidance. What other factors contribute to this behavior?

    If smbdy can solve... Please...

    I think the problem is that the path you specify is invalid for a goal of RT. On the RT, the 'path' should just be the name of the inspection. If you look at help for the VI open Inspection, it says to use the get target Inpections VI to see what paths for all controls are... sometimes the path is a name of numbers subsequent, though it may not be what you think.

  • Cannot open the e-mail from Adobe Acrobat application

    First of all, let me say that was exceptionally difficult to find somewhere I might actually post. I don't think it should be that hard, either I've missed the easy way. Eitherway, let me know if this is in the wrong place, because I am posting this now that I finally found somewhere I can actually post.

    I use adobe acrobat X standard v10.1.2 (I think, should be fully updated without worrying) on windows 7 pro - x 32. I can open a pdf file and then click on the envelope to send by e-mail, and it brings up a side panel. When I tell the email attachment, it seems that if she does something and then disappears without notice. I tried as admin and same result, I troubleshoot compatibility and it came with xp sp2 and when I did, it says "cannot open the e-mail software" and when I run in administrator mode and xp mode it says always 'impossible to open the email software' on other computers it would be perfectly fine without a hitch, even if they are 64-bit could this be the cause? Also already tried to reinstall Acrobat and it did not help and tried to do a "repair" and that did not help either. So I'm really at a lost, unable to find any documentation on this error if were just troubleshooting using my typical procedures. I hope someone can help out me.

    Thank you

    You are most likely in a problem with Win7 email client number. I'm not sure about AAX, but for older versions, the e-mail was through the interface MAPI Ms. Most of the time you simply make sure that your default e-mail client is specified in the default Windows programs. For some clients, you must enable their ability to use MAPI.

    Not sure if this will help, but it is typically a Windows problem to solve because of the way Acrobat trys to interact with mail.

  • Cannot open the application "Mail" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported

    I work on a MacBook Pro mid 2012

    Intel Core i5 2.5 GHz

    OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

    The Mail app suddenly quit and when I tried to resume, I got this message

    "Cannot open the application"Mail"because the PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

    This also happens with the "Maps" app

    All Mac software are up to date, but "Mail" has been working fine since my last update that was awhile ago.

    I am confused to say the least. Suggestions? Thank you!

    If you do a Get Info (command - I) on Mail and Maps applications, what version numbers do you see?

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

    Safe mode - on El Capitan

    Start Mode without failure-El Capitan.
