I meet an issue while using outlook send an email with attachment .It is warning me that attachment (an excel file )was using or opened by other application which I didn’t find any use or open it,please any one can help me figure out this issue
Waring:The attachment of email was already opened or used by other applications
If you are using the Excel to read/write in your PAD actions before sending the email, please make sure to close it.
Check the Task Manager to see any previous instance of Excel is already opened.
Before sending email in PAD ，there was an action to close the excel already , also I have checked Task Manager to make sure doesn’t any previous instance of Excel was already opened
btw,I have found the same problem through Google who was used python to send a email ,he explained that the attachment is needs time to upload, so it is possible the same issue too?
