I hope this is the right ng.
I'm using word 97.
I'm sure I used to able to click on the 'file' > 'send to' tabs and then be
able to send the current file to an email recipient. Email recipient is no
longer under the 'send to' tab. I've tried adding options from the original
cd but can't find one that is applicable. I can send the doc by starting OE
and inserting the document but sending direct from word would be much easier
and faster.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Nic.

Hi Nic,

Hope this helps.

An error in most Windows win.ini files that prevent programs such as Word
from sending mail as an attachment when Outlook Express is the email
client. (the button is greyed out) To fix it, modify the [Mail] section in
your win.ini file as follows:

[Mail]
MAPI=1
CMC=1
CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
MAPIX=1
MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
OLEMessaging=1
