Opening Files from Web
I recently got a new computer from my company. It's
running IE 6 and Office 2003. I use a web-based Outlook site to check my e-mail. In the past, if I opened an Excel attachment from an e-mail, it would lauch the application. Now it's opening files in IE with a modified standard toolbar instead of in Excel. Does anyone know what I need to do to get these files to launch in Excel automatically, besides saving files and opening them while in Excel? Thanks, Jane |

There's a setting in Windows that you can change.
In win98, I can do this: Start Windows Explorer View|Folder Options File Types Tab scroll down to MS Excel Worksheet Select it click the edit button There's an option to "browse in same window". Uncheck it. That's where you can toggle the "confirm open after download", too.
