How can I change security levels for atytachments in Outlook 2003?
I keep changing the security level in Outlook 2003 to Medium, Outlook keeps
changing it back to High. I posted a question concerning opening
a Word document from within Outlook on 12/13. I must have stumped
everyone 'cause no replied. So I found the only way is to create a Task
and insert an attachment which would be a Word document. Now Outlook
won't al;low me to change the security to medium and it removes the
Attachments.
Any ideas??

Your post doesn't make much sense;
1) The security level your are refering to doesn't exist for attachments.
Are you changing the macro security level?
2) Outlook doesn't remove attachments it blocks access to unsafe attachments
but Word documents are not considered unsafe

Sorry, I'm-half-a-sleep.
Whenever I try to Save and Close and item I have inserted
an attachment Outlook prompts me only for Word
doc. I tried inserting an attachment to my Access db application
and it was blocked.
Is there any changes in the security I can make that will allow
me to insert an attachment to an .mde or mdb file?

Yes, read the instructions at the page I gave you? Best is to zip them
though.
