Attchmnts in Out. Exprs 6 show as envelopes in Pict. Mngr. Won't o

[Guest]

Suddenly all e-mail picture attachments (Outlook Express 6) cannot be opened.
MicrosoftOffice Picture Manager shows fleetingly on the screen, before the
screen shows an open white envelope in the middle. The best I've been able
to do is replace the screen with the lonely white envelope to a screen of
file addresses. I put everything back to default settings, hoping that might
help. It didn't. I ran detect and repair programs. A message said "Active
X Control is damaged." Help please. I've spent hours trying to figure this
out and can't.
Thanks.

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.
