Hi. I have adobe acrobat reader version 7 and I cannot open some PDF file
attatchments in outlook express. But when I log onto a web site, I can open
and download o.k.
Any ideas?

Try saving them to your hard drive, then opening them. Does that work?

What happens when you try? Any error message?

You mention "some". Does that mean that some PDF attachments open OK in Outlook Express?

Are the problem attachments all coming from the same person?

Message I get is "there was an error opening this document.the file is
damaged and cannot be repaired"
Michael, I have also posted the 2 problems above this one, #### symbols in
emails and some jpeg attatchments wont open fully. Do you think I might have
a corrupted file somewhere in oe?

Jim.
