i am trying to figure out how to stop a specific word document from
opening up with email-sending options. whenever i open the word doc,
it opens in MSWord looking like email with a predefined subject field
such as "specs document", a blank to field, and a blank cc field
similar to what we see in outlook when sending emails out.

is there way to stop this? it only happens with this particular
document and i can't figure out why. i've also tried saving my own
self-generated word docs as different file types and even tried
changing mail option settings and whatever else is in the options menus
to try and replicate what this file is doing in hopes of reverse
engineering the problem.

is this issue something i have control over? would this be something
that someone "coded" into the page with html or vba macros? even if
so, there should still be a way to view it in word w/o all the email
sending options popping up. i thought it'd be as easy as unchecking a
checkbox somewhere or removing a line of code...

anyone know what i can do? please help...thanks in advance.

Hi GeoRob

Try this. Open the document. Do File Send and click Mail Recipient. That
will make the email header information go away. Make a trivial change in the
document (eg press space then backspace) and save. It should now open
without the email header.

Hope this helps.

You should just have to go under the File menu, Send to and click on
Mail Recipients and it should disappear.
