change office to select file specific software to open attachment.

's Computer Specifications

When I try to open attachments in outlook,office opens and tries to open
it,through some kind of file conversion attempt.How do you configure outlook
to autoselect adobe reader to open pdf files,(and similarly for other
software specific files?)

That's a Windows setting. Outlook will follow whatever file associations
you've created in Windows.
