Office 2010 - Attachments Not Working

Hi,

I'm unable to attach documents to a email in Outlook 2010. I've tried dragging and dropping or navigating to the file from Outlook attachment prompt. File just will not attach. No error appears, it acts like it was successful but the attachment doesn't show up.

I am running CrossOver Linux 13.1.0 (Trial) on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit. If I can get Office working, I'll be buying this for sure!

Update:

So, I solved my issue of why it wouldn't attach. I was trying to attach a file with a colon in it and Windows I don't think supports this so Outlook (or Wine) threw a fit.

So, the question is, how to best get files between Ubuntu system into Outlook. I know I can browse to the Z: drive, but can be a hastle. Is there an easier way? Is there a way to get drag n drop working?

Thanks,
Curtis

Update:

I tested a file from within the "bottle" Office was installed in and I am able to attach those documents.

So, the question is, how do I get it so I can easily attach and save files between the Outlook 2010 bottle and the Ubuntu file system.

Thanks,
Curtis
