Default word docs as attachments

thanks, graham. That worked perfectly. I understand about the deformatting,
but I'd rather deal with that than have my letter unread.

Note that the formatting of your document will almost certainly be lost when
you send the document as an e-mail message as the formatting requirements
for Word documents and html are entirely different. Web view should provide
an indication.

Graham: there seems to be some misunderstanding. The "E-mail" command
is not missing. It's working perfectly, sending docs as attachments.
The problem is, I don't want to send docs as attachments, because the
recipients who don't know me don't want to open attachments. I WANT
TO SEND DOCS AS EMAIL TEXT, the way older versions of Word used to.
Is there any way I can send docs as email text without doing a "mark,
copy and paste?"

Many people no longer accept attachments in their email from unknown
correspondents, but Word 2007 will only email docs as attachments.
Older versions of word used to simply transmit the doc as the email
content.

Other than marking the entire doc and copying and pasting it into
the email, what can I do to transform the doc directly into an
email and NOT as an attachment?
