I am using Outlook 2000 and for approx. 2 weeks when I receive and attachment
that is in excel I receive a message that says "computer can not find
specified file. This happens only with excel files. I have tried everything.
I save it before opening and I get the same message. when opening it, excel
opens but I only get a grey screen where the workbook should be .
