I have a real weird problem. Sending a word or pdf attachments doesn't reach
all my addressees. The same 2 guys don't get any of my attachments from the
Toshiba laptop I have outlook 2000 SR3 installed on. I have a desktop that
delives attachments just fime. Have reinstalled Office and applied update
with the same results. Sending attachment with outlook express works from
the laptop.
Going crazy!!!!!
 
Are you using Outlook Rich Text Format? Word as the editor? Try using plain
text and Outlook's native editor to see if this fixes the problem.

Another possibility is that under tools\options\security that "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus" is checked.
 
I forgot to mention I send attachments copied to 6 people 4 get it 2 don't
"consistently". Format is "Rich Text" These 2 guys get everything but the
attachments. Doesn't seem to matter what it is, doc, pdf, xls, txt they
just don't get it.

There is your problem. Change to Plain text, as Milly told you to.
 
Ray I'm assuming this is at the receivers end. Not sure this explains
Outlook Express OK and outlook 2000 SR3 from same computer no attachment
delivered.
