How do I delete the setting to automatically open an
attachment upon selecting it? In other words, I would
like to revert to my .doc files to give me a dialouge box
asking if I want to open or save a file when I try to open
it.

Thanks!
 
Control Panel-> Folder Options-> tab File Types-> select doc-> Advanced->
uncheck Confirm Open after download

Thanks -- I figured it would be in there somewhere. Just
FYI -- since I WANTED the dialouge box, I needed to check
the option. Also, in WIN98 you need to open explorer and
use the tools --> folder options menu item because there
isn't a folder options control panel.

Thanks for the help!!!
