Outlook Express

When I open an attachment in Outlook Express, it always opens in the "Reading
Layout" and I want it to open in the "Print Layout". How can I accomplish
this?

Amplify, if you please, as to what constitutes the "Reading" and/or "Print"
layout? I just don't understand the problem.

Could you possibly be referring to Word documents that arrive as an
attachment? If so, please ask your question in a newsgroup for Microsoft
Word.

I am specifically referring to .doc files. They are known to have been sent
in the Print Layout (see View/Normal, Web Layout, Print Layout, Reading
Layout, Outline) but when I open the .doc attachment, it always opens in the
reading layout and our office desires the print layout to be displayed.

Thanks for your help!

Assuming you save the *.doc file to a folder and open it with Word, you
should ask this question in a newsgroup for Word rather than for Outlook
Express. You need to set an option in Word for your choice and I cannot
recall what option it is, but any of the Word gurus should be able to help
you out.

All OE does is save the attachment to the IE Temporary Internet Files
(TIF), then launch the program from the Windows File Associations OPEN
action passing the file name. What that program does with the file is
entirely up to it.
