Default Excel e-mail attachment

I'm using Office2003 on Win XP
I compose an e-mail in Outlook, and add an Excel file, (MyFile.xls) as an
attachment.
MyFile.xls is in the D:\ directory.
Before sending, if I double click the attachment, then click the Open option
in the dialog box,
Excel opens as expected, but with an error message as follows:-

"D:\Documents and Settings\don\local settings\Temporary Internet
Files\OLK8E\MyFile.xls
cannot be found. Check the spelling and verify file location is correct.
If you are trying to open the file from your
list of most recently used files, make sure the file has not been
renamed, moved or deleted."

So this suggested location for the file is clearly wrong as it's at
D:\MyFile.xls.

If I take the option to save the file instead of opening it, and save it to
another location,
where I then double click, Excel opens it OK.

If I send the e-mail to myself and open it, the same problem occurs.

It seems there is some problem in the link between Outlook & Excel.
Can anyone help.
