Here is an odd one....

Have a spreadsheet that is sent out daily to a group of people. One person
is unable to open the attachment from her e-mail (Cannot create file:file
name.xls. Right click othe folder you want to creat the file in, and then
click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permisisons for the
folder).

The user can open other spreadsheets sent by the same person.

The user can open the spreadsheet if it is saved to a shared drive.

The user can open the spreadsheet if one of the other receipeints forwards
the e-mail to her. (can't open the file from the original e-mail, but can
from the forwarded e-mail).

Any clues as to what is going on?
