Open attached doc

I have windows 7.  When a doc attachment arrives on email, I need to register so that I can open it, but with pdf and xls attachments, I get the choice to open or save in a dialog box.  Can I get that option for the docs?

Create a file association.
 
1. download and save the attachment to the office.
2. right click on the saved file.
3. Select: Open with on the shortcut menu.
4. click on: choose [default] program.
5. Select: Microsoft Word.
6. check: always use the selected program to open this type of file.
7. click on OK.
 
This should allow you to open these attachments directly from email address now.

  • opening of .doc under vista

    I'm unable to open a .doc in vista, either by an attachment or my documents folder. It opens in gibberish and unreadable. I have already downloaded a reader of words program that allowed me to read documents, but I couldn't edit them. I was able to open documents before but not now. Is it possible I can create a way to open them?

    Here is a link to download for free Microsoft Word Viewer.

    You can not edit with Word Viewer; you need the Word program to change:

  • Error opening InDesign doc on network share permissions

    Hi all

    We have a bunch of Mac users running MacOSX 10.9.5 running this version of InDesign

    2014.2 release

    10.2.0.69 build

    They work on documents that are stored on a Windows 2003 file server (connected via smb://servername/share). Windows file server and Mac clients are all attached to AD.

    Intermittently, they will receive this error when you try to open an InDesign file on the file server.

    "Cannot open the document in Full: path:to:document.indd. You may not have permission or the document can be opened already.

    If they try a second time, the document opens correctly. It also happens with what is happening in the Mac Finder while trying to open the doc using Adobe Bridge.

    I checked permissions of sharing/NTFS on Windows 2003 server and they look very well (the permissions are inherited correctly and the person trying to open the document is the owner of it... etc...)

    Any ideas on what's going on? On NTFS, users have the permission to do everything except take ownership and change permissions

    Yes, it is a common problem in using a wrong setting for the server. The server must allow access to a file. Otherwise, the Finder blocks the file because it loads the preview. After 2-3 seconds, the file can be opened. Another problem is that the files in the Finder cannot be saved with Photoshop so that the file will be disabled in the Finder. Only way to get rid of the error is to change the server configuration or by using the bridge instead of the Finder.

    I hope this helps.

  • I can longer open attached pdf files. I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.

    * Original title: attachments

    Help, please.

    I did something wrong (AGAIN!)

    I had no problem with access to attachments to my e-mails, but a problem occurred just.

    I can longer open attached pdf files.  I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.  When I click to open all the I get now is a kind of icon (in Microsoft Office Picture Manager) with which I can't do anything.

    It seems I should have arranged for Picture Manager automatically opens attachments to emails, but when this happens, I'm stuck as what I try, I can't do pdf files appear as they did.

    The help file does not really help.

    I hope it is something simple, even an old fool like me can do with your expert (and, I hope. friendly) help.

    My fingers are crossed.

    My apologies if I offended Protocol - this is my first venture.regards

  • Could not open the doc. (MS Word and Excel) attached to emails or submitted through Web site

    I have the new Studio from Dell with Windows 7 that's installed with McAfee.

    I can't open documents sent to me by e-mail or submitted by a "drop box" on the website of my teaching.  The message says that the "file format cannot be supported by installed converters."

    I see that others have raised this issue previously in the forum, but it does not seem that he has responded to directly.  Help, please!  It is huge hassle to save documents and then reopen to read, especially because these are not the documents I need to keep.
