PC Win: No Paperclip Icon on Message with OLE Object

Last reviewed: October 29, 1994
Article ID: Q84884

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2

SYMPTOMS

If you move a message with an object linking and embedding (OLE) object to a shared folder in version 3.0, 3.0b, or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows, the icon next to the message does not display a paperclip. If you move the message back to a private folder, the paperclip icon reappears.

This occurs only with OLE objects, not with regular file attachments.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
