And precisely WHERE is this attachment? You do need to give a modicum of
basic information - we don't have crystal balls here to see what is
happening....

some attachments are from email outlook express- documents (forms) sent from
friends from a website...another is a questionaire i am retrieving from a
website...both produce same result...asks if i want to open...briefly
displays downloading of file, and back to question (and menu) for opening
file...i know i hit something yesterday in trying to print the questionaire,
but can't figure out what i did...

If this is in Outlook Express, try going to Tools, Options, Security, and
de-selecting "do not allow attachments to be opened"

That's a pdf file - have you got a pdf file reader on your machine?
(Free Acrobat Reader for example?)
