EXCEL 2007 SEND AS ATTACHMENT BUT RECIPIENT ONLY RECEIVES ATTACHME

[bodgeup]

I HAVE A PROBLEM WHEN I TRY TO SEND EMAILS FROM WITHIN EXCEL 2007 USING THE
SEND AS ATTACHMENT FUNCTION. BUT WHEN THE RECIPIENT OPENS THE RECEIVED EMAIL
ONLY THE ATTACHMENT ITSELF IS THERE AND THE ACTUAL TEXT FROM THE BODY OF THE
EMAIL DISAPPEARS.

I HAVE SEEN A SIMILAR POST BUT HAVE NOT SEEN ANY SOLUTION.

I KNOW THAT I COULD CREATE AN EMAIL IN OUTLOOK AND ATTACH FROM THERE BUT I
WANT TO ACTUALLY FIND OUT WHY THIS HAPPENS AND FIX IT.

MANY THANKS

Works for me using Send from the Office Button dropdown menu. I am using
Thunderbird as my email program. And the email body text shows up.

I'm using Excel 2007 SP1.
