Editing spreadsheets in emails

Hi
I receive requisition spreadsheets that I want to populate and reply to the
sender or senders. Currently I need to open the sheet, enter info, save and
close the sheet, hit reply to all, and reattach the edited sheet and send.
Although the attributes of the form they send me is NOT read only, when I
save it, it says the form is read only and I need to save with a different
name.

Is there a way that I can edit the sheet and reply to all without needing to
save and reattach it?

Not usually. Windows stores the downloaded email attachments in a temp
folder, that is why it says Read-Only when you open directly from
email. You can save it in the temp folder, but Windows will usually
delete it automatically. I think when you close it, or close the
email. Either way. You need to save it somewhere "real" first.

Hi.
Actually I did get it to work. I forgot to hit Forward before opening the
spreadsheet.
