Opening Multiple Attachments in Outlook 2003 at the same time

I have a user that is pretty certain that in older versions of Outlook he
could select all attachments in an email and right-click one of them and
choose open and the computer would open all attachments in the appropriate
program. Having never supported older version of Outlook I don't know. He
wants Outlook 2003 to do the same thing. Is it possible and if so, how?
 
No, it never worked. They would need to be opened one at a time unless he
had the option to always check turned off.

....always check turned off? Meaning what?
 
No Dave I never did. After the first member responded that it wasn't possible
I took that as gospel. I figured that Microsoft may have removed it from
Outlook 2003 because of a security issue or something.
