User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/21.0.1180.83 Safari/537.1 Steps to reproduce: When any XLS (or XLSX) document already open (Excel 2007 12.0.6661.5000 SP2), i try to open XLS attachment from a new message. When not open, i try to cause a window "Save files" (Ctrl+J) and open file from this window. If not open, i click right button on file and select "Open contain folder" and open file from Windows Explorer - it's open. Actual results: When attachment not open nothing happens. No error window. Already open document stay, new XLS won't open. It occurs in 70% of cases with any files DOC or XLS. Expected results: Attachment should open in new Excel window or something else. Windows Server 2003

I am able to reproduce this, albeit intermittently, with TB17/Excel2003. STR - start Excel, open one document test.xls (in reproducing case, it was write-protected) - from TB, double-click on attachment.xls, then choose "open with excel" Actual result - Excel window with test.xls comes to foreground - attachment.xls is not opened Expected result - attachment.xls should be opened in Excel, alongside test.xls (in another Excel window).
