hello
please tell me how i can set up outlook XP (2002) to obtain the
following thing
when i have an e-mail with attach and hit the "reply" or reply all" -
the text of the original e-mail is shown in the message but the
attachement is not
when I forward the e-mail - everything is OK

thanks

That's because if you reply to whoever sent you the attachment - they
ALREADY HAVE IT!
"Forward! means to send on to someone else - so they DON'T have it!

yes that i know but if they sent me a .doc file for example, I'm
opening it directly from attach , edit it, save it , and want to send
it back - that's why I was asking if there is a possibility to set up
Outlook to put the attach when you are doing reply

No. You have to save the file to your HDD, edit, and then re-attach manually
to the reply.

Never do that. You are not actually editing the attachment in the message,
but a temporary copy.

Can't be done. What you WANT to do is to save the attachment to disk, edit
it there, then reply and reattach the changed file.
