Default Emailing from within Word 2007 - want to change default from outlo

You can certainly use your gmail account or your hotmail account with
Outlook. You can setup gmail as a pop account - the essentials are covered
at http://www.gmayor.com/use_google_gma...emove_spam.htm (which goes
farther than you need to go to use gmail directly) and for Hotmail (and
possibly MSN) you can use Outlook Connector

Word is designed to be used with Outlook and cannot be used directly with
web based e-mail services.

I'm in a Word 2007 file and want to send it via email. When i click on
"send
email" while i'm in the file, it automatically chooses outlook, which i
don't
want to use. i want to use gmail, hotmail or msn email to send the
document.
how may i select something other than outlook as my default email program
to
send my doc from? thanks.
