Can't E-mail excel's anymore, Why?

[Marker]

I use Office 97, which I used for years on a Win95
machine with no trouble. In November, I bought a new
computer, P4 2.66 GHZ, 512 DDR Ram, 120 Gb, Win XP. No
trouble from then until a few days ago. First, the option
to "send to" on the File menu disappeared, so I couldn't
E-mail from there, but I could still E-mail from the
folder the files were saved to. Today, When I try to send
from that folder, i get " Microsoft Exchange Setup
Wizard", which tells me I'm set to use "Corel Central
Address Book 9". I have Corel on my computer, but I swear
I've never used it. I can't E-mail my work, what should I
do. I've spent several hours searching around for an
answer, can't find one. Sorry to bother you with what
must be a stupid question, but I would really appreciate
some help. Thankx, Marker.

Dear Marker
Have you tried composing the email in your email programme
(EG Outlook express) and then attaching the Excel
spreadsheet from there?

Thank you, Paul, for responding. I did try using Outlook
Express, and it did work. BTW, I use Mcafee viruscan,
which says I'm clean, Sygate personal firewall (the free
one), Adaware and Spybot Search & Destroy. As far as I
know, I'm not infected, but something is ongoing. Any
Ideas? I thank you again. Marker

Paul, this message is later than the other one. I figured
out how to re-set my Outlook Express function from the
file folder where the files are kept, so that's working
again, but I still can't send directly from the file when
it's open: there is no "send to" option in the file drop-
down menu. I don't know where to go to find it. Thanks
again for any help. Marker.
