The problem is when i open attachment it shows me an error message "Can't create file Right-Click the folder you want to create the file in, and then click properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder". Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

This issue may occur when the Temporary Internet Files folder is stored on a server on which you do not have sufficient permissions. When opening an attachment the first thing Outlook does is save the file to a specific folder on the hard drive.

Are you opening the Word attachment directly from the email? Go to start > run > type regedit : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Security\and make sure that path exists. Set the key to read-only for the user.
