Are these msg-files you've created yourself or did you receive them? In case
of the last; can you succesfully open you own? Also post your version of
Outlook.

Don't think so at the moment but you could always try a Detect and Repair.
Are these messages from Outlook 2003 clients as well? Is there anything
logged to the Event Viewer?

Sounds like you were working in a mixture of UNICODE and ANSI files. Outlook
2003 uses UNICODE while previous versions used ANSI.

I have a similar issue. I using Outlook 2003 and recently I cannot open msg attachments. Other attachments, word, excel, etc work fine. I have tried creating a new profile, detect and repair and re-installing Office (including Outlook 2003). I continue the get the same error – Messaging Interface Returned an Unknown Error … I can save the attached message file to my desktop and then can open. This applies for html or plain text formatted message. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks, Dan

I am experiencing the same problem, I'll try uninstalling and re-installing
Office next week.
