Default e-mail sent but not rec'd

In that case you should both (a) have Outlook (available if not installed)
and (b) have no problem using OE (I send mail to OE from Word all the time).

The Home and Student version of Office 2007 does not include Outlook and
will not use Outlook Express, so perhaps we should find out what version

the
OP has.

Now I am confused. Have you got Outlook? Why are you trying to use

Outlook
Express then?

It is neither one. Is it possible my home and student version of

word
is
not
compatible with outlook?

Word is not an e-mail application. It uses whatever e-mail

application
is
set as default. In your case this apepars to be Outlook Express.

Open Outlook Express - is the message in the SENT ITEMS folder or

the
OUTBOX
folder?

If the former, it has been sent; if the latter, it is waiting to be

sent.

You need to go to the Control Panel, Internet and check under
Programs Tab
to see what client is set for Email as default. Word should be
using which
ever client is set here.

I see outlook express, but when I go to it my messages don't
show. If I sent
a message from outlook express it works fine, if I try to

send
using microsoft word it says message sent but it never

arrives. I
test it by sending to my comcast address.

Click the Start button; at the top of your Start menu, Just

below
"Internet"
you should see "Email". This should launch your email

program.
In this
context, "client" can be thought of as another word for
"program".

Boy, I feel stupid but I don't know who my email client is

or
how to tell.
Sorry.

Open your email client associated with Word and check in

the
Sent Items
folder. Is the email listed? If not, is it still in the

Out
Folder waiting
to be sent?

If not, please tell us the procedure you used to send the

Word
document.
