I am using a PC (with Vista) and need to open 3 attachments. They say, 'no name' on the email and when I download them, they open in Word but as gobbledigook. The PDF and Excel attachemnts open without a problem.

What can I do?

Ooo, thanks squiggly. All sorted now. I didn't realise it was a known problem with gmail. V annoying but am glad it was easy to sort out. Thank you for helping
