I have Windows Vista and am using the email program provided. I am unable to open *.pdf files from within the email program. Outside of the mail program, they open fine. Acrobat Reader is associated to *.pdf files but the email program does not see this. Any helop would be appreciated.

Did you enable opening of attachments? Tools > Options > Security > uncheck "Do not allow attachments..." Gary VanderMolen "Dave_W_in_FL"

I think its a known issue with pdf files. You have to save them to disk first. steve "Paul Dwyer" <Paul Dwyer discussions.microsoft.com>

Confirmed, I just tested this and it does not work (opening a .pdf attachment within WM). Also, the error message is misleading in that it refers to a Set Associations control panel, but there is no such animal in Control Panel. Gary VanderMolen "Steve Cochran"

I've spent ages looking for that too and I've come to the conclusion that Control Panel>Default Programs>Set Associations might be one and the same.
