Why Outlook, and by extension, Microsoft are gay.
on: February 23, 2003, 07:06:37 am
My dad got an important .xls file, that could possibly decide his career as an attachment that he needed to fill out and send back to the guy he got it from. Guess what. Outlook doesn't let people open .xls files, because they could potentially cause viruses.

The help suggests to upload the files to a share server.

 I suggest  having Bill Gates raped by OJ Simpson in his ass-hole (both of them) until a big dead duck with a clown hat comes singing 'Oh Holy Night' in the White House, or Ronald MacDonald gets 4 breast implants and stars in the next episode of Friends, whichever occurs first.

Thank you for my attention.

help tells me it can't be done. I, naturally, do not trust help, but going through every menu in the entire system is a long job.

I can't save it. Outlook won't let me.

Just delete the e-mail and accept that your dad would probably have been fired anyway.

It would help if you provided the text of the error message and the version of Outlook. Or were you just wanting to vent and not actually fix the problem?

This might help though--
