When I have a Word document on the screen, I want to email it, so I click on
"send to" but the "mail recipient (for review)" option is not lit up so I
cannot click on it. How do I fix this.

If I close the document and go into AOL, I can "attach" the document and
send the documetn by email that way. But I cannot email the document when
I'm in the document itself.

Thank you.

AOL is not a MAPI-compliant email application. You need to use
Outlook or Outlook Express if you want to email directly from
Word. In the case of Outlook, then Outlook must be the same
version as Word too.

E-mail via AOL is totally non-standard. AFAIK there is no way to invoke it
from Word and you have to do as you are doing.
