Hi, open the file in notepad and delete the code then save, also it helps to avoid .docs and use pdfs

Thank you Phil

I couldn't find a launcher html, but did modify the player.hmtl and now I can open the attachments once I accept the active x alert prompt.

It's messed up the opening of the actual file itself though by immediately throwing up that same active x alert before I can even open the elearning up.  This will startle my learners - any idea how I can get back my smooth entry into the elearning?  I can put an explanation in of what to do when the active x prompt turns up from within my module - so I am not so concerned about the prompt turning up when they open the attachments.

keeping fingers crossed

Hey Peb,

I doubt your learners will see any of this once you publish this course outside of your local drive. It should work normally.

Thank you for the reassurance Ron, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this problem will go with me.  My organisations internet explorer is beyond ancient and I suspect that maybe having an impact?  Either that or the layers of security that override all the computer work that is done. 

I will just have to wait and see

Hi Peb.

This issue only occurs offline. The solution is not to modify any files. The solution is to host your content online via a valid HTTP address.
