What could I possibly do to solve that?

I receive the error below:

Outlook blocked access to the file type of form.

I am opening using "double click".

Are you opening it from the file system? Only very basic oft files can be
opened on a double click from explorer. Others need to be opened using
tools, forms, choose a form.

Diane,

That's right.
But in Outlook 2003, I had the same problem.
After I created the following key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\Mail]
"AllowMSGFilestoCreateProps"=dword:00000001
Outlook worked correctly.
Is there a solution for Outlook 2007 like this?

No, at this time there is no solution as Outlook 2007 doesn't support the
registry key.
