APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q146209

SYMPTOMS

When you receive a mail message with an embedded Microsoft Excel attachment, you can print the message and attachment at the same time by selecting the Print Attachments options.

However, when Microsoft Excel opens and loads the attachment to print, its print dialog appears and waits for your input. You must select the OK button on the Microsoft Excel dialog box to allow the print job to continue.

CAUSE

This is by product design.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Excel 97 does not exhibit this problem running with either Microsoft Exchange 4.0 or 5.0.
