Word 2007 and email
I installed Home and Student 2007. No problems. However, when I tried to
email from Word, the Email portion was greyed out. Fax was fine. I am using Windows Mail as my email. I do not have Outlook, nor do I have access to the Outlook program. What are my options here. Need some direction. I know that I can copy and paste, and I can attach in my email. I really would like to email directly from Word, or Excel, or PP. Thanks -- Lil |

Others have reported success with Method 2. I know that the warning sounds
a bit dire, but if you follow the instructions (it is best to print out the article so that you can refer to it easily), you should be OK. -- Hope this helps.

Doug, I did it. I did a System Restore Point, Backed up the Registry,
crossed my fingers and plunged right in. It Worked!!! Thanks for you support and help. -- Lil "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: Others have reported success with Method 2.
