Sending Outlook email from MS Powerpoint, Word, Excel

[SeanF74]

Hello-

Whenever I want to send a file from a program, say Powerpoint, by using the
send feature in Powerpoint, it opens up an email with the file as the
attachment as I would expect. However, it will not let me access the file to
review it or my Outlook inbox (or any other opened message) while I have that
one email opened (i.e., before sending the message). Is there any way to
remove the feature so I can review Outlook or Powerpoint while in this
message is open?

thanks,

When you use the File, Send to menu you'll get this always - its how
simplemapi calls outlook and cant be changed. You need to save and close
the message form then reopen. Or save the file and send it from explorer or
attach to a new message. (See
http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2006/20060615.htm if you choose to send
using Windows Explorer's Send to menu.)
