Default How do I view/download wma and bmp files sent to me from email?

Normal files (video and images) that I received on hotmail/gmail do not
appear on outlook 2007. Even when I click on the file to download it, the
program states I need to obtain a third party viewer. Can someone help?

BMP files should open in paint, but you'll need to double click to open
them - you can't preview them like you can jpg. Same is true for videos,
although there might be a preview handler for some video formats.
