SYMPTOMS
When you send Project 4.0 Macintosh files using Microsoft Exchange Server, the file creator and type are reset to null, making the file unreadable.

When you try to open the Project 4.0 attachment, the following error message appears:

The document could not be opened, because the application program that created it could not be found. Could not find a translation extension with appropriate translators.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:
 * Use a file server (such as Windows NT File Services for Macintosh) to share the file and create a Macintosh-accessible volume.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client version 4.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 U.S. Service Pack 4.
