Word Documents from Outlook 2003

Most of the users in my company are on Windows, using Outlook to send email. My art department, who are G5s, use Mail. Both receive mail from external POP3 accounts.
When the office manager sends memos in Word document format to the art department, they get attachments in .DAT form, which cannot be opened in Word. The G5s do have MS Office installed on them. When I send the same document to my home Mac & receive with Mail, I get the document in Word form with no problem, so I don't think it's a setting in Outlook.
Any ideas? THANKS!

Hello,
The issue sounds like the one that can be caused by an Exchange Server, and Outlook. See:

  • HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw doesn't print Microsoft Word documents from PC

    Hello.
    I've recently bought a brand new HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw printer. The functions seemed really nice and the price was acceptable. I've brought it to my home, installed it following the manual, connected it to Wi-Fi etc. It generally works fairly well. PDF files are printed perfectly well, the scaning function works and it's generally a nice piece of technology.
    The only problem is that it just doesn't want to pring Microsoft Word documents from my PC. It prints it perfectly when I try to print .docx from my smartphone using the app, but it doesn't respond when I try doing it from the PC.
    My Office version is 2007 Enterprise. Do you have any idea what I should do?
    Thank you in advance

    Thank you a lot for a quick reply, Cbert. It's fantastic to see HP actually reading their forums and trying to help!
    I'll try plugging it into the wall and directly to the PC with a USB, we'll see if it works out.
    About Word, i've already tried reinstalling Word, even installed a 2003 version to check if it works with that. Well it doesn't. And as i've written before, I tried turning some .docx files to .pdf using a converter, but it still doesn't print them.
    Anyway, i'll try the first two points and keep you updated, thanks!

  • "An error occurred sending the command to the application" When trying to open excel document from outlook 2007

    Error message "An error occurred sending the command to the application" When trying to open excel document from outlook 2007.
    OS: Windows Server 2008 R2
    If I save the document then it opens fine, messing with default file associations does not resolve this problem, I've googled for ir it and some suggest unticking compatibility mode or "run as admin" for excel application, neither is selected in my case.
    Outlook is configured to run as remote application from remoteApp server, this error is only occurring for one user, for others excel documents open just fine.

    Hi
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    From your description, we can Create a trusted location follow these steps
    Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Excel Options.
    Click Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings, and then click
    Trusted Locations.
    If you want to create a trusted location that is not local to your computer, select the Allow trusted locations on my network (not recommended) check
    box.
    Click Add new location.
     IMPORTANT   We recommended that you don't make your entire
    Documents or My Documents folder a trusted location. Doing so creates a larger target for a hacker to potentially exploit and increases your security risk. Create a subfolder within Documents or My Documents, and make only that folder a trusted location.
    In the Path box, type the name of the folder that you want to use as a trusted location, or click Browse to
    locate the folder.
    If you want to include subfolders as trusted locations, select the
    Subfolders of this location are also trusted check box.
    In the Description box, type what you want to describe the purpose of the trusted location.
    Click OK.

    Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything
    I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope that helps.

  • Cant print from Outlook 2003 or IS 11

    Hi, a a few things i would look into on this one. Firstly have a quick look in event viewer and your AV logs to see if any further information can be found. Lastly have a look into anything that could have been installed or updated (Even the widows updates you mention) as one of these may be the cause of blocking the print process. i would advise looking into AV also on this.

    In the last few days I can no longer print from Outlook 2003 or IE 11. I could before and I can still from Word, Excel etc. In both Outlook & IE, when I push Print, the print dialog comes up, my printer is recognized, I can access its features, but when I press Print, nothing goes into the print que. I have Windows 7 and have just updated and have restarted and cold started.
    Any Ideas?

  • Hot Synch ---From Outlook 2003 (just want contacts and appointmen​ts, no mail)

    Hello,
    I'm 60- maybe too old to figure this out, but I sure hope not! I have a brand new m515, read the manual, and tutorial, but info on hotsynching /downloading from Outlook 2003 into my Palm is abit unclear to me. Maybe I set something up wrong. It synchs and comes up on my main PC screen fine, but doesn't transfer any info from Outlook to my Palm at all.
    What did I not do right setting it up, and how can I fix it please? This is the main reason I BOUGHT the Palm.
    Thanks very, very much. I have a disability and have ALOT of doctor appointments, so I need to get this to work ASAP.
    Many thanks.

    Post relates to: Palm m515

    Hi,
    Well, after no replies on the forum, I looked for palm support, and found that for $25. I could talk to a person who I had a hard time understanding. But he did help me figure out things. Basically I uninstalled everything and reinstalled things and checked different boxes for downloads/synch'ing etc. So far, so good. I see why the resolution of the screen is mentioned by many...but as long as I have it in larger or bold font, I can see what I need to see. Besides, the Palms that seem to have great screen resolutions are, like most of the other PDA's, alot more money!
    I thank you for the reply. At this point (crossing fingers) all is working fine, synch'ing fine and accurately, so I will be easy with it and hope it stays that way. I bought screen protectors for it and a leather clip on carrier to protect it. I hope it stays functional and reliable for some time.
    Thanks again for the offer to help. I did, by the way, download the latest version of Desktop and am using that now.
    Best regards,

  • I am getting an unknown error when trying to download a word document from mail to pages, any help

    I am trying to download a word document from mail into pages and I keep getting an unknown error message, are there special settings for this? Any help much appreciated!

    Not there aren't any special settings for this. You just use the Open In feature to save the document into Pages. You could have a font in the document that Pages doesn't like, maybe something that you copied and pasted from somewhere into the document that went corrupt. But there is nothing special about the way that you save a Word document into Pages. You save it like you save any document or file into a compatible app.

    i install abode - it will download but not install and indicates i have to close firefox before it will download. Also, I try to open a word document from a website - it will download but not open.

    You need to close Firefox to install many plugins, including those from Adobe.

  • Upload / Open a Word Document from BDS with WebDynpro

    Hello,
    we use the BDS (Business Document Server) to storage our word files. Now we use WebDynpro with the UI OfficeControl.
    Could any one tell me, how to open/upload my documents from BDS with the OfficeControl.
    The UI FileUpload does not work, because it is not allowed to use specify URLs. link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/b3/be7941601b1d09e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
    For example that is the URL from the BDS: "SAPR3://SAPR3CMS/get/100/BDS_5FDB2_5FR/7B3AAF5B22AAD21197ED0060B0672A3C/Forminterface.doc"
    I use the class "CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET" with the method "get_with_url". result is above.
    Each example with the OfficeControl from SAP (Package SIOS) use the Mime Repository:
    mime_repository = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
      CALL METHOD mime_repository->get
        EXPORTING
          i_url     = url
        IMPORTING
          e_content = content.
      wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATAS' value = content ).
    Have any one an idea, how BDS and WebDynpro works together

    What about getting the binary of the word document from BDS and download this?
    Yes, it exist a method calls "get_with_table". This return the binary path from my url above.
    Here is my source code:
    public attributes
    DATA oi_document TYPE REF TO if_ios_wordprocessing.
    DATA oi_factory TYPE REF TO if_ios_factory.
    METHOD wddomodifyview .
    DATA ol_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
    DATA ol_office TYPE REF TO cl_wd_office_control.
    DATA vl_document TYPE xstring.
    short from
      vl_document = myBDS->get_with_table( ).
    Settings for UI OFFICE_CONTROL
      ol_node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'OFFICE' ).
      ol_node->set_attribute( name = 'DATASET' value = vl_document ).
    get the office control
      wd_this->oi_office ?= view->get_element( 'OFFICE_CONTROL' ).
    get the IOS Factory
          wd_this->oi_factory ?= ol_office->_method_handler.
    get proxy document
          wd_this->oi_factory->get_wordprocessing_proxy(
          IMPORTING proxy = wd_this->oi_document  ).
    CALL METHOD wd_this->oi_document->if_ios_document~opendocument( ).
    ENDMETHOD.
    When I compile everything is ok. But when I run my application, it nothing happen. No word file is opening or no error message. I create a ALC trace (SAPNOTE 949770).
    Each time when I try to open my word file comes a popup-window from the alc-trace:
    ERRO|20081024143529|WD86_1300|CIOS_GeneralDocumentContainer_Acf::| STG_E_READFAULT  : readaccess|HRESULT=-2147287010(     A disk error occurred during a read operation)
    ERRO|20081024143529|WD86_1300|CIOS_GeneralDocumentContainer_Acf::|Office version is lower than 12, only native office format supported|HRESULT=-2147467259(Unspecified error

    But I have access to the BDS and to the document.
    Can any one help me.....
