I work for an organisation that uses Exchange as its mail server. I use
Outlook 2000 as my e-mail client - this works fine. However, when I want to
send a document as an e-mail attachment (File Send To..) in Word I do not
get the Global Address List or any of my personal contacts stored in
Exchange. All I get is a blank address book which I cannot e-mail from.

It appears as though Word 2000 is trying to use a local address book and
Outlook Express to send the mail instead of Outlook 2000. I have looked all
over for a solution to this problem but cannot find one. Other colleagues
have the same setup as myself but they do not have a problem.

Can anyone help with this matter.

G'day Andrew Williams Andrew ,

I always start a new email, then just drag the doc into it. Work with
what you can ;-)
