Melvin:
Thank you for your timely response. Glad to
know I'm not the only one with such a problem --- none of my close associates
have occurred such a situation.
One question, how do I "be sure that the
association for the pdf extension is assigned to Acrobat"?

Hi Paul,
I've had numerous complaints from friends and
clients with essentially the same complaint. They, like you, were using
Outlook Express. It seems to be a fairly common issue. For some
time I found that having them save the attachment first, then opening the
saved file worked reliably, but I've since found that in several of the cases,
the problem was related to file associations being missing or wrong.
Make sure that the association for the pdf extension is assigned to
Acrobat. If that still doesn't resolve the issue, or it is in fact
already that way, you should still be able to fall back to the "save and then
open" mode.
