Default sending newsletter in body of e-mail

I don't think this is a WORD question ... but if I created an e-newsletter in
WORD and wanted to send this "in" the e-mail and not as an attachment, how
would I be able to do this?

Bottom line ... when someone opens the e-mail, I want the newsletter to be
there and not have to be downloaded or opened.

Default sending newsletter in body of e-mail

If the recipient has their email set for plain text only, there's nothing
you can do to override that.

Default sending newsletter in body of e-mail

As JoAnn Paules indicated, you can't control how others open/read email you
send them. How to do what you want however, given that caveat, depends on
what version of Word you have an what program you're using for email.

Using Word 2007 and Outlook 2007, two ways a

1. Add the Send to Email Recipient tool to your Quick Access Toolbar; click
on it to add the To/Subect/etc. headers to the current document.

or

2. In Word, copy the newsletter to the clipboard; start a new formatted
email in Outlook; paste the contents of the clipboard.


The latter method will work, in concept, with any version of Word and any
email program that's capable of creating/sending formatted email.

Default sending newsletter in body of e-mail

Mail merge is the best solution for this. You can use your Outlook Contacts
as a data source, create your newsletter in Word, and then email an
individual newsletter to each of your Outlook Contacts. Note that you can't
include an attachment using this method so your newsletter will display as
the body of the email message. Here's an article that contains more
information on how to accomplish this:

What do you mean? If you send an email from within Word, not as an
attachment, Rich Text/HTML included in the email isn't converted to an
attachment if they have their email set to plain text - it will simply
display as plain text.
