SYMPTOMSWhen double-clicking on an attachment with a file extension of DCX (Fax document), the following error message may occur:
CAUSEThis occurs because the Microsoft Exchange client is not installing Faxview.exe on computers running Windows NT 4.0, but is associating DCX file types to Faxview.exe. The Microsoft Exchange client Setup does not install Faxview because Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows NT 4.0 use the Imaging Accessory (Wangimg.exe) in place of the Faxviewer Accessory. WORKAROUNDTo work around this problem:
Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows NT 4.0 do not have the Faxviewer Accessory available as an installable accessory. Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows NT 4.0 use the Imaging Accessory (Wangimg.exe) in place of the Faxviewer Accessory. If Wangimg.exe is available, faxes can be viewed by associating DCX files with the Wangimg.exe program while using Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows NT 4.0. Wangimg.exe is located in the Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\ImageVue\ directory on Windows NT 4.0, and in the <Win95root> directory on Windows 95 OSR2. If Wangimg.exe is not available, the Imaging Accessory will need to be installed from Windows 95 OSR2 or Windows NT 4.0 Setup before DCX files can be associated with Wangimg.exe. MORE INFORMATION
When the error is displayed, you will have the opportunity select the
correct location of Faxview.exe by clicking Locate in the error message
dialog box.
