OS - Vista / Word 2007 / Windows mail
Why when I click the word 2007 icon (like the old file command) and drop to
"send to" It shows both email and fax options but I'm only given the ability
to choose the option to fax the document. I can't figure out how to activate
"E-mail". I messed around in the "mailings" tab and nothing I do seems to
take me in the right direction. I would like to email word docs directly
from word without having to cut and paste into a new email.
 
The Send to E-mail Recipient function in Word does not work
unless the MAPI handler is installed. Typically, the MAPI handler
is installed with Outlook. I don't know if the Office 2007 install CD
has an option to install the MAPI handler sans Outlook.
 
These whole vista/windows mail issues I've wrestled with makes it look like
XP would have been the preferred way to go. Interesting to note, I can email
out of powerpoint 2007 but not out of word or excel.
 
It is not good practice to link directly to a download link.
I would be hesitant to use a .reg file without knowing if it came from
Microsoft or whether it was approved by a trustworthy authority.
