Did you select Windows Mail as your default email program in Vista?

Yes I did. I get all my regular emails with no problem. It's just WORD 2003
that is giving me the problem. There must be something I don't have set up
right. Thanks for your reply.

You did not answer my question. Just because you can get email in
Windows Mail does not mean it is set as your default email application
in Vista.

ok that seemed to do it. thanks so much!!! I'm not used to Vista at all and
I had no problems changing it with XP. I'll have to check that when I put in
Word 2007. Thanks again; you've been a great help!
