Hi,

I have just purchased office 2007 professional and want to send word
documents in the body of an e-mail not as an attachement. This was working
fine until we downloaded the add in to save documents as pdf. Since then the
icon is greyed out and nothing works to try and get it active. I can e-mail a
word document as an attachment but don't want to do this. I have searched the
internet and have not found anything on this relating to office professional
edition. I found that option is not available in student and academic version
but this is professional version! Any help would be appreciated as this is
driving me mad.

The reason the function does not work in the Student version is that
particular version does not include Outlook, which the function requires as
the default e-mail application.

You should note also that the formatting requirements for Word documents and
HTML e-mail are entirely different and simply mailing a Word document as the
body text does not result in the recipient getting a copy of your formatted
Word document. For that you need to send the document as attachment -
preferably in PDF format.

Hi,

Thanks for your answer but I don't have the student version but the
professional version with outlook. The link was working before I downloaded
the add in to save as pdf but now it doesn't work. I know that the
formatting is changed but I want to send word documents in the body of the
e-mail how do I do this if the button is greyed out
