Outlook wont open mdb file as attachment - any workaround?

Incase anyone cares, I ended up zipping the mdb and sent it as a zip file. That did work. "Rich" wrote: > I need to send an mdb file in outlook to a recipient who also has outlook.

Either after opening Outlook, or after having republished my custom form, the very first email that is sent activating RMS is received by the addressee a rpmsg attachment. The second time the message is properly displayed. It is as if the RMS client is not properly activated on the first message, but starting with the second message. And it depends only on the sender, not the addressee. Weird!...

Execute the Send Action on the Outlook Appointments item/form
Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]
8 / 8 08 Dec 2007
I think the direct booking feature, which operates within Outlook, depends on the item being displayed and sent manually by the user. Alternatives are to use Exchange 2007 or, on earlier versions, an autoaccept script, to accept appointments on the server side.
