The attachment appears to be located in a /tmp directory under the .kde directory. My question is: what would be the better method of being able to open these attachments with OOo? I suspect that it might have something to do with setting the path variables, but I am really not sure. Any help please? <snip>Yep, that's about the size of it. So, I'm baffled. As I said, I think that it has something to do with setting the paths, but I don't know how to do that for these two apps.Ah. Your email was a bit on the jumbled side. I considered that, and it was as a consequence of associating OOo with word documents and powerpoint attachments that I get the "can't find attachment" result that I am seeking to address.Any suggestions?You need to set the correct file associations. Somewhere in Konq, maybe? (Since I don't use KDE, that's beyond my expertise.) - -- Anyone?
