I create a Word (8.0) document and send it as an attachment. The person who
gets it can not open it by clicking on the attachment. Word will try to
open, sometimes showing a quick requesting virus scan at the bottom of the
page, and then nothing happens, no error messages. Since many people can not
open it, it is either my Word problem or my OutlookExpress (6.0) problem.
Can anyone help?

Thanks, Bruce

Try SaveAs and save in a different version to see what happens.
