Email Word 2007
In previous versions of word if you asked to email a document, microsoft word
would automatically open an email interface and mail the contents of the document through outlook. In word 2007 I can't find any such feature, all I can find is a "Send as an attatchment" aside from copying and pasting in outlook, is there anyway to send the contents of a word 2007 document, as an email, not as an attatchment, through Microsoft Word itself? (IE I press send on Word, not outlook...obviously it's sent THROUGH outlook) |

The "send as body" command isn't on the menu or the ribbon, but you
can add it to the Quick Access Toolbar (the little bar of icons above the ribbon). At the right end of the toolbar, click the little down arrow and choose "Customize Quick Access Toolbar". In that dialog, set the "Choose commands from" dropdown to "Commands Not in the Ribbon" (the next-to-last item). Scroll down the list and choose the Email command, then click the Add button to push it over to the list of items on the toolbar. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Email Word 2007
I had this same question, and followed your advice.
However, the email icon is greyed out, and I cannot select it. The email icon with a paper clip, for sending as an attachment, works just fine. -- Jay Are H "Jay Freedman" wrote: The "send as body" command isn't on the menu or the ribbon, but you can add it to the Quick Access Toolbar (the little bar of icons above the ribbon).
