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

It attaches the file, but I want a clickable button inside the document
itself that is set up to a specific email address and subject line when it imports to the email client. "Bear" wrote: Doesn't File Send To Mail Recipient (as attachment) do what you want? Bear -- Windows XP, Word 2000 |

Do you want a button in a Word document that attaches that document to an
e-mail message and sends it to the same recipient each time? I can tell you how to do that (if you have a half-hour). But I don't know of any way to make Word functionality operate when the document is an attachment to an e-mail message.

That's exactly right. An email button in the Word document that attaches
that document to the email client with a specified email address with a specified subject line. I want to do this without using macros. Please respond, thank you.

I'm sorry, but I don't know how it could be done without macros. The "email
button in the Word document" would simply be launching a macro that would automate the manual procedure you're now going through with File Send To Mail recipient. I hope I haven't mislead you.

Can it be done without other users having to enable macros when they open the
document? This is why I didn't want macros. However, if a macro can be used without the user having to enable them when they open the form, I'm down to listen.

Crazymfr:
What I'm talking about is a button we'd add to your Word toolbars, not to a specific document. Whenever you clicked that button, it would send the current document to a specific recipient as an attachment. The recipient would not need to enable or run any macros when opening the attachment. Let me direct you to an article on the Word MVP site that details how to do this. I suggest you try the routing slip method first and see if it will do what you want. http://word.mvps.org/faqs/interdev/SendMail.htm This article shows you the code to use. If you need help placing this code and attaching it to a toolbar button, see: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...oToToolbar.htm And if you get stuck, don't hesitate to ask for help.

Create "send to mail recipient as attachment" button inside wo
will other users have access to the same toolbar? Will it be displayed when
they open the document? In addition, I will have different documents that need to go to different people. I need multiple people to be able to use this.

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: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/fo...r/default.aspx Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Crazymfr:
Clearly, I don't understand your application fully. I'd be happy to see if I can help you, but I think we should probably take this offlist. If you check my profile, you'll find an e-mail address at which you can reach me directly. I'd like as complete a description of the application as you can manage. You don't have to be terribly technical, just outline what you want to do, how often, how many people, etc. and try to list the things that might need to vary.
