MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / March 2008Send button no longer on Message ribbon after reinstall
I recently had to reinstalling Office 2007 Professional RTM after the secondary (i.e. non-boot) hard drive suffered partial MFT corruption. I was able to uninstall Office 2007 successfully before fixing the drive and reinstalling the same version of Office from the same source discs. After reinstalling, I noticed that the Send button no longer appears on the Message ribbon like it used to. It used to be located where the Clipboard in now located on the Message ribbon. Now it only appears in the message itself, next to "To", "Cc", and "Bcc". After searching the discussion groups and the regular Office support site, I am unable to find a way to get this functionality back... nor am I able to find an explaination of why it disappeared. I was able to find some mention of changes to this functionality around the Beta 2 timeframe, but these installs were both of the RTM version. The only difference that I know of between the installs is this: The first install include Business Contact Manager. Because I never used BCM, I decided not to install it when I performed the reinstall. I would appreciate any help in understanding this issue. Thanks Hi Do you mean the Send/Receive button by any chance ?? If you do then you might be able to go into the customize toolbar option, choose "Tools" from the commands menu and then drag "Send/Receive" up to the toolbar if it appears there... Hope that helps Regards Davidt > I recently had to reinstalling Office 2007 Professional RTM after the > secondary (i.e. non-boot) hard drive suffered partial MFT corruption.

To clarify, the issue is that the "Send" button no longer appears on the Message ribbon when composing a message in Office 2007. Prior to the reinstall, it used to show up in the Message tab of the ribbon (where the Clipboard group is now) in addition to showing up in the message itself (near To, Cc, Bcc, and subject). After the reinstall, it only shows up in the message itself and no longer shows up in Message tab of the ribbon. > Hi > Do you mean the Send/Receive button by any chance ??

Hopefully someone else might be able to help you...I assume that you can still send emails without any problems though ?

I'm confident that somebody here will have the answer too. You are correct, I can still send e-mail as the Send button still shows up in the message itself... however, I habituated to the Send button on the Message tab of the ribbon. My muscle memory keeps taking me there... As a software developer, I'm also curious about the cause of this change... same version of Office 2007, same discs, and yet a different result. That's part of what made me wonder if not installing Business Contact Manager the second time is what lead to this difference. > Hi there > Sounds like an odd one, to be honest then I have only seen the send button [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > > > > I would appreciate any help in understanding this issue. > > > > Thanks Hi Certainly sounds plausible that this is what has caused the difference, guess the only way to tell would be to install it again but add the contact manager in and see if that makes a difference. I have to admit that I havent ever installed the contact manager so have never seen that option...might be worth a try if you get a chance and some time to spare LOL Regards Davidt > Again, thanks for your help. > [quoted text clipped - 63 lines] > > > > > I would appreciate any help in understanding this issue. > > > > > Thanks |
