    Hi

    I have a user that receives generated reports in a pdf format via email.
    now this user can open up previously emailed generated reports that are in pdf format with out a problem.
    today he received about 4 emails with new reports in pdf format
    now when he tries to open these new files he gets a access denied error.
    he cant open save move or delete this new files.
    I had him forward me the email with the attached pdf to see if I would get this error but I can open them without a problem
    so i don't think the files are corrupt

    These reports are vital and need to be processed asap
    Im wondering how to fix this

    Thanks for the help

    Ok I did download the Foxit program ran it and the user is unable to open the pdf files (Access Denied)

    So what I did is i had the user forward me the email with the pdf files attached through outlook.
    I then moved the attached pdf file to his user folder on the server and he is able to open it.

    So now i'm thinking that it might be some type of problem in the users Outlook

    If so what do you recommend my next step to be?
    reinstall outlook?
