I know you can create an HTML email using word, but how do I send the email
so that when the recipient recieves it, they can't edit it, and you only have
to click on a hyperlink once, not hit "cntrl""click". Am I saving the
document incorrectly or inserting it into the email incorrectly?

If you don't want the recipient to be able to edit your document, you need to
put it into something like a .pdf format.

Why do you need to restrict that and how would you think that it would be
different than creating it directly in Outlook?

The CTRL+CLICK is only during composing; the recipient doesn't have to do
this.

No, you need to put it in something that supports rights management or
content editing restrictions. Although the pdf-format supports such a thing,
putting it into a pdf-file alone will not do the trick.

What I did was create the document in word with hyperlinks in the object,
changed my email setting to html and added the document as an object. That is
the only way I could figure out how to get it to show up automatically not as
an attachment. But when I send it to someone, when they click on a link, it
takes the email into edit mode and they can't just click on the link.

Yes, because you send it as an object it will open Word to read it as it is
an embedded doc-file now. Why not send the document as the body since that
is what you are trying to achieve?
