Glitch in trying to insert an attachment
Hi everyone,
Just noticed a problem in OE. I am running xpsp2 and use OE6. When I try to insert an attachment into a message and browse the hard drive (say for a music file), it is not displaying all my sub folders under my music (eg it is only listing the first five subfolders and won't list anymore - I have eight subfolders under my music). I have tried everything and have no idea what could be causing this. It worked okay just a few days ago. I ran spy bot and adaware and everything is clean, and my virus protection is always running. Please advise. I can not use IE 7, since it locks up my machine, apparently due to a conflict that I learned about, that MS IE 7 has with HP printers. Anyway, my OE 6 always worked fine in the past, and I had no problems browsing for a file to insert, until now. Also, I just noticed that the dropdown menu for "insert" has now got more entries that are not "shaded". Could this have something to do with a windows update "dicking" up something. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks....Pete |

At the bottom of the dialog box there is a down arrow. If you click that do
you have the option to Show All Files? And does that resolve it? -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Pete" wrote in message ... Hi everyone, Just noticed a problem in OE.

Oooooops. Sorry guys (and gals). Everything is okay. User error :-( . I
didn't notice the next batch of subfolders scrolling horizontally - shame on me - damn it. The subfolders stopped at five going vertically and it gave me a mindset that I couldn't get out of. Sorry again :-) ......Pete Pete wrote: Hi everyone, Just noticed a problem in OE. I am running xpsp2 and use OE6.
