When send email it opens as wordpad
Does the recipient have MS Word? If not, that's the problem.

When send email it opens as wordpad
She says she does. She is telling me I don't have the full office program.
But I'm pretty sure I do. Any more help would be appreciated. Thanks! -- www.createdwithlovebyapril.com "CyberTaz" wrote: Does the recipient have MS Word?

When send email it opens as wordpad
It doesn't matter if you don't have "Office". That's a collection of
programs, not a specific program. Are you creating the file with Word? Are you saving it as a .doc file? If so, then the problem is probably on her end. Ask her if the attachment says the name is blahblah.doc (the blahblah part would be the name you chose). If not, there's something funky in the emailing part. If so, the funky part is the end user. ;-) It could be that her file associations are messed up *but* before you say that to her (which will certainly irritate her), find out about the FULL name of the file she receives. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "apeyj" wrote in message ...

If you are sending Word document files and she is unable to open them then
1. Ensure the document is not corrupted in transit by using a zip utility such as Winzip to compress the file. 2. Documents should always be saved to the hard drive before attempting to open them. 3. If the recipient's PC opens Word documents in WordPad instead of Word - point her to How to re-register Word when problems crop up opening files http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/ReRegisterWord.htm as it won't only be your documents she is having problems with. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org JoAnn Paules [MVP] wrote: It doesn't matter if you don't have "Office".
