title: Why is Outlook Unable to Save a Particular Type of Attachments?
body: <p>I have a little VBA macro to save attachments in Outlook using the following snippet</p>
  
  <pre><code>For Each objAtt In objSourceItem.Attachments
    strFile = strPath &amp; objAtt.FileName 
    objAtt.SaveAsFile strFile
  Next
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works for all types of attachments except for ChemDraw attachments. I get an error saying that "Outlook cannot perform this action on this type of attachment"
  I am not sure if this specific to ChemDraw, but I maybe it has to do with file extension and Outlook not recognizing the file format. Anyway, this <a href="http://www.cambridgesoft.com/services/documentation/sdk/chemdraw/cdx/General.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.cambridgesoft.com/services/documentation/sdk/chemdraw/cdx/General.htm</a> has info on ChemDraw type files. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!</p>
