Windows Viewer & Multiple Pics

[Moira]

If someone sends me a file with many pics in it, I have to open each one.
The forward and back options in Window Viewer only show previous pics opened.
I have deleted temp Net files, and still I have to doubleclick on each pic
to view them. Any suggestions?

Did you just open the attachment or did you save the attachment to your
hard-drive first?

Photo attachments in email are stored in your temporary internet folder,
temporarily, and only that file. When you open with windows picture
and fax viewer you are opening that photo in that folder. Thus the
others are not there to browse. But I bet others are.
Do a save all attachments and put them in some special folder just for
this purpose you create. Like I put mine in C:\downloads.

I just open it. Now there are others in the office on the same Network that
don't save their downloads, and are able to scroll forwards and backwards in
whatever is sent to them using Windows Viewer. All they do is double click
on the first photo, and then hit the forward button. That's what I am
confused.
Thanks!

See if running Disk Cleanup helps at all, otherwise save the attachment
before attempting to view the pix.

What's your default Mail Client? What are others in your office using?

We are all using Outlook. I have a brand new Computer last week and was able
to have Windows Viewer working like everyone else's . . . now it doesn't.\
Their attachments appear at the bottom of their message, and then double
click on the first photo, and then using the forward button in Windows Viewer
to view the rest of them. I am using Outlook 2003.
Thanks!

I have no idea why you're seeing this behavior, unless others in your office
are running other versions of Outlook or not everyone in the office is fully
patched at Office Update.
