Hi, My customer has been using Outlook 2003 with Windows XP. For years he has used "drag&drop" to move Outlook messages to the appropriate My Documents sub folder to keep a record of his client information. The messages have attachments like pdf, pps, wmv, etc. He could easily click on the file document to open Outlook and then click on the attachment to run the pdf, pps, etc. I have refreshed his computer with Outlook 2007 with VISTA Business. Now he can still read attachments to messages in Outlook. After "drag&drop" he still can read messages in his document sub folders. However, now he can't open the attachments. If he moves the message back into Outlook he again can read the attachments. Are there any fixes that can give him back the old functionality to be able to read the attachments in the document folders?
