To save all attachments

1. Open the message that contains the file attachments you want to save.
2. Hold down SHIFT, and then click each attachment so that they are all selected.
3. On the File menu, click Save Attachments.

To save a single attachment

1. Open the message that contains the file attachment you want to save.
2. Right-click the attachment, and then click Save As.

Please post back if you have any more problems or questions.

We need to know specifics and you haven't answered the last question. Tell us where you're trying to save the file. Are you trying to save it in My Documents? The error you said you are receiving in the original post says the "URL can not be saved to a file". What URL?

And, are you going through the File -> Save Attachments option in Outlook, or right clicking the attachment in Outlook and choosing Save? Or, are you opening the file first, THEN choosing to save it from the Excel File -> Save button? Or, are you right clicking a LINK to a file in the message and trying to save it as a file?
