I'm trying email a word document for people to fill out and send on via
outlook. My only issue is that I want that word doc to send without saving.
Any ideas?
 
Yeah, so the open the doc. with the send info at the top of the doc, From;
To; CC; etc. I want them to be able to enter a name in the TO field and
click on send and the document to close. So they don't even have the option
to save it.

You are aware that any computer file can be saved, one way or another,
right?

I'm aware it can be saved. I just want the main document to be saved, but I
don't want it to be saved every time someone uses it.

What you ask is impossible. Unless the changes are saved there is no way of
sending the changed document anywhere. Even the simple action of sending an
e-mail saves the e-mail message. It is the saving that produces a file copy
that can be transmitted.

Actually, if I send the document through email, it sends a completed copy,
then allows me to, if I choose, exit out of the word doc without saving the
completed form. It only saves the blank form. So my question is basically
can I send that email(completed form) and then close the word doc without
saving? Can I write a macro to do this?
