Answer 2

the other answers are cool, but personally I made a folder on the Yahoo email server for the documents I don't want to loose if my computer gives out, so I make a Word file cut and paste the body of the email into the Word file save it and email it back to myself so I can open it with wordprocessing program. Notepad works the same way. then i delete the orginal email and have the attachment as a real file. That way it is in a workable format. I leave it there on Yahoo that way no matter where I am at work or on vacation those files are at my disposal. Emails work the same way, they add up and also have junk attached to them now days, the saving process elimates the fear of transfering a virus to disk if you want to burn the file to a disk after you make the file you can and not have to worry about give the virus to the disk. Good luck oh ya, then just use the Windows Explorer to move the file from a email to a file in whatever folder you want on your hard drive.
