WM doesn't use MAPI. You either need to buy and install Outlook, or download and install Mozilla Thunderbird (similar to WM but better and also free) HTH -- Asking a question?

Yes I am using Windows Mail. I find it amazing that two Microsoft products
do not talk to one another. Thanks for the prompt reply. What is MAPI? "Gordon" wrote: "Edddd" wrote in message ... The option to email a document from my version of Word is grayed out.

OE isn't fully MAPI-compliant, either, and I can use it from Word 2007. Are
you sure Windows Mail can't be used? -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Gordon" wrote in message ... "Edddd" wrote in message ...

The "E-mail" command is missing or is unavailable in Excel 2007, in
PowerPoint 2007, or in Word 2007 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918792 -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Edddd wrote: The option to email a document from my version of Word is grayed out.

Not "100" % certain because I don't use it either, but I have heard this as a reason why users of Home and Student can't email from within an Office application. I don't think the email client has to be fully MAPI, just simple MAPI. I have read somewhere that WM doesn't use the MAPI engine... -- Asking a question?

Well, I haven't tried actually using either, but I have both Send to Mail
Recipient and Send to Mail Recipient (as Attachment) with OE in Word 2007. I have Outlook 2003 (not 2007) installed, and it is not set as my default mail client (I use OE). If I use either of those commands, it brings up a mail header with or without message form. I haven't gone so far as to try to send anything, but it appears to work. But I'm running Windows XP, so it's quite possible that under Vista, with WM, the situation might be different. -- Suzanne S.

Take a look at the following thread
http://groups.google.com/group/micro...u blic.word.* in which one respondent (Bob Keene) advised: Quote Solved problem of greyed out send email by downloading from the Microsoft website the 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Save as PDF or XPS. This added these features and opened the greyed out Sending email. Unquote You can download that add-in from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Edddd" wrote in message ...
