Default Create "send to mail recipient as attachment" button inside word d

You can't do what you want without using a macro. The best you can do is use
a hyperlink that creates a new mail message with the e-mail address already
filled in an a Subject. For this, click the Hyperlink button and then in the
Insert Hyperlink dialog box, select E-mail address and fill in the rest.

What I suspect you have is a form and when the form is complete you want it
to be emailed back to you, correct? If that's the case then InfoPath will do
what you want but unless the recipient also has InfoPath, or if you have
Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007 then it won't work.

Here's some info on Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007 if interested:

I want to create a clickable button that sends an open Word document to
mail
recipient as attachment and specify the subject and email address for the
email.

1. Can this be done?
2. Can this be done without a macro?

I basically want the function of the send to mail recipient as attachment
function with the customizability of a hyperlink.

Can anyone help me? Thank you.
