| Outlook 2002 disallows access to certain attachments
|
| There are 2 levels of attachments, by default:
|
| Level 1 contains:
|
ade;adp;asx;bas;bat;chm;cmd;com;cpl;crt;exe;hlp;hta;inf;ins;isp;js;jse;lnk;m
| da;mdb;mde;mdz;msc;
| msi;msp;mst;pcd;pif;prf;reg;scf;scr;sct;shb;shs;url;vb;vbe;vbs;wsc;wsf;wsh
|
| Level 2 contains:
| none
| Okay, basically there are a varying levels and actions which Outlook 2002
is
| performing :
|
| Aevel 1 - Attachments are blocked from user access.
| Level 2 - Attachments can be saved but not viewed.
|
| Workround:
|
| The following key moves attachments from level 1 to level 2 so that users
| can save the attachment.
|
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\Security
| Key: Level1Remove
|
Reg_SZ:ade;adp;asx;bas;bat;chm;cmd;com;cpl;crt;exe;hlp;hta;inf;ins;isp;js;js
| e;lnk;mda;mdb;
|
mde;mdz;msc;msi;msp;mst;pcd;pif;prf;reg;scf;scr;sct;shb;shs;url;vb;vbe;vbs;w
| sc;wsf;wsh
|
|
| If this doesn't work check and remove the following registry keys:
|
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SW\Policies\Microsoft\Security\
| Key: CheckAdminSettings
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook
| Key: DisallowAttachmentCustomization
|
|
| hope this helps.
|
| REMEMBER, EDITING YOUR REGISTRY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE IF DONE
INCORRECTLY
| :-)
