The system cannot find the file specified

[Ken]

When I try and open an excel attachment fro outlook it receive the following
error†The system cannot find the file specifiedâ€. The problem seems to be
when opening office 2007 files. I am running Office 2003.
I have tried checking and un-checking “ignore other applications’ and I have
cleared my browser history. Recommended in other posts.
The file will open but with the name “XI0000001(read only)

Have you installed the Office 2007 Compatibility Pack?

I am having exactly the same issue and can't find a solution anywhere. The
only difference with mine is that when I try to open the XL file it opens
"book 1" and sends me the same message.
