What happens when you try? Does it fail with both attaching and receiving
attached messages?

Are you scanning email messages with a virus scanner?

The problem is: when I try to attach a email in a message showme a error
that say "object is not valid"

Are you creating a new message and trying to attach another message to that
new message? How are you trying to attach it? State your exact steps.

Step by Step

Create a new email, wrote text and then attach new element
clic to acept new element, message appear "invalid object"

Are you using a non-English version of Outlook? If so, does your
description mean Insert | Item; then select item?

Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook]

Step by Step

Create a new email, wrote text and then attach new element
clic to acept new element, message appear "invalid object"

Try just dragging the old message from Inbox to the body of the new message.
Does that work?

I have the same issue. If an email is sent to me with attachments, I can
open attachments such as Excel spreadsheets, PDFs, but not another email.

Along the same lines, when I try to send a new message and want to attach
another email to my email, I get the "Object Cannot Be Found" error message.
I compose a new message, go to Insert, Item and try to choose an email from
my Inbox to attach. If I use "Insert as Text Only", it will insert it in the
body of the email without a problem. However, if I use "Insert as
Attachment", I receive the error message.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

And have you also tried the other suggestions that have been made?

Dan

Yes of course I tried the other suggestions and had no luck. It just gives
the error message "Cannot Create Attachments. The Object Could Not Be Found".

The suggestion was "Try just dragging the old message from Inbox to the body
of the new message. Does that work?" from Brian Tillman on 8/21/2009. Every
other post before that was just people trying to figure out what exactly
Francisco was asking. I tried clarifying the issue in my first post since it
seems Francisco and I have the same problem. Hopefully you'll have some
ideas that may help.

Thanks.

the error message "Cannot Create Attachments. The Object Could Not Be
Found".

So, you disabled your firewall and antivirus programs? You tried dragging the
attachment to the mail message? You tried starting Outlook once with the
/cleanviews command switch? You tried a new mail profile?
