get tnef.rpm from rpmfind.net then use the following script: #!/bin/sh TMP=/tmp/$$ echo "`date` $0 $@" >> /tmp/log rm -fr $TMP /usr/bin/tnef -t "$1" > /tmp/$$ NAME=`cat $TMP` ; rm -fr $TMP [ "x$NAME" != "x" ] && rm -fr "/tmp/$NAME" /usr/bin/tnef -C /tmp "$1" office "/tmp/$NAME"
where office is a script that runs word excel or powerpoint depending on file extension, you can also try and use *office of course, but i refer real office on top of codeweaver. H.
