Help Please!
I don't use Word tables much, but I created a nice one-page "newsletter"
using it. I wanted to be able to copy and paste it as an email message, rather than as an attachment. However, I cannot seem to paste it into an Outlook Express New Message box as it appears on my Word page. The top and bottom look great, but the middle section is not in line and appears far out to the right side and I am unable to move it. All assistance is appreciated. Thank you in advance, Fran |

I'm no expert but have had experience sending Word documents & tables through
Outlook mail. It may look perfect on your end but it may not show up on all email servers the way you intend it to look. Fonts, colors & formatting can get changed & so even though you had a great looking newsletter it will just be text to some people - no columns or anything. Even if you do send it as an attachment, you could lose formatting & fonts when recipients open depending on their printer settings, etc. If sending as an attachment, pdf it - then it will definitely look the same way to every recipient. To send in the body of the email you need to save it as a picture. Possibly try, selecting & copying the whole document, paste it into Paint & then save it as a picture file. Then insert picture in Outlook. "Fran" wrote: I don't use Word tables much, but I created a nice one-page "newsletter" using it.

E-mail uses html format for formatted documents where as Word uses Word
document format. The two have different formatting requirements. You can't simply send a Word document as the body of an e-mail message and expect the recipient to view it as the original Word document. If you want the document to appear exactly as it appears in Word then you need to send it as a PDF format attachment. Otherwise work with the document in Word's Web view. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Fran wrote: I don't use Word tables much, but I created a nice one-page "newsletter" using it.
