Sorry, about that. I'm always accused of being long-winded. She IS using a
remote desktop. She right-clicks on the email attachment and selects "save
as", then navigates to the correct folder. It then tells her the folder is
read only and she can't save it. Weird thing is, I talked her through
creating that folder on her c:\ drive. If it was the remote servers c:\, it
would not have allowed her to create that folder in the first place, would
it? And Yes, she is connecting to a remote desktop server.
