This is what i did,
1) open myfile.xls from C drive
2) open myfile.xls from outlook attachment and i see that it opens up as
myfile2.xls
3) closed the original spread*** and myfile2.xls
4) now i opened the spread*** attached in outlook. I still see that the
name is still myfile2.xls
why is this so?
