HI all

I am running Outlook XP on WinXP SP1, When i tried to save a Excel
attachment, it shows a error message "Cannot save the attachment. Can't
create file: abc.xls. Right-click the folder you want to create file in, and
then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the
folder." It doesn't work even i tried to save on the desktop. However, it
only happened recently and it only happen to certain excel attachments from
the old emails. I don't have problem with the new email with excel
attachment, i can save them no problem. I am sure those old one are not
corrupted because i can open them,read them and i can forward them to some
other people and they open them fine.

Also, all other files format are fine, can save them without another problem.

Any ideas?

Cheers

START | RUN | excel.exe /regsvr
After This close Excel and try it again
