How can i get attachment to open in browsesr?

Hi

We are uploading multiple attachments against contact records - pdfs, jpgs, bmps etc. When we click on them they are downloading to the local drive for opening. Is there any way we can get them to open in browser? I can change my browser setting to open PDFs in browser but not other file types and anyway, I need to be able to control this at application level rather than individual device level.

Any ideas?

Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion but we are not storing them in Sharepoint - they are uploaded by customers via a portal to CRM where we open them for verification purposes. They are eventually archived to Sharepoint but while the are "active" they are in CRM.

    Ideally I would have them open in a new browser window.

    If you are storing these files in SharePoint, you can go into the advanced settings of the Document library and change the client application settings to Browser.
