If you view your Internet Options on the Programs tab, do you have Outlook
set as your default email client?

I think I have isolated the problem. If I go to Start Menu, select
Default
Programs, then select Set Program Access and Computer Defaults, go to
Custom,
and select Microsoft Office Outlook, Word launches Outlook and sends the
program normally. However, the setting is lost when I reboot. It goes
back
to "Use My Current-Email program" and there is evidently a conflict with
Windows Mail. How to I fix this? Thanks.

My copy of Word 2007 recently crashed. Now, whenever I attempt to send
an
open Word document by email via Outlook, Word freezes up, and Outlook
does
not launch. When I attempt to close Word, I get an error message
saying
that
I must wait for Outlook to open--which does not happen until I use the
task
manager to force Word to close. (Outlook then opens.) Outlook
launches
automatically when I attempt to send a link by email from my web
browser.
How do I fix Word to get it to launch Outlook automatically to send a
file
as
an email attachment? Thanks.
Have you tried repairing your Office installation? In your Control Panel
go
to Add/Remove Programs and use the Repair option for the Microsoft Office
2007 installation.
