The users browser is naming the file based on it being a web form attachment. &nbsp;That is the correct file association, so unless you have some way of hacking all the users registries to change that file association<br />
you have to live with it, or come up with some kind of filter on the incoming mail that modifies the names of attached files.

Thanks for your reply, however everything used to work &nbsp;the way Adobe advertised. <br />
One month ago the user browser sent the attachment as a PDF, not as .ATT.<br />
<br />
Research indicated the PDF &quot;Form&quot; is wrong.<br />
<br />
Are you saying this could be caused by a Microsoft update? Adobe?

Research indicated the PDF "Form" is wrong.
