Using Word & Outlook 2002 -
What is the easiest way to email someone a link to a Word
document on the same network?

The "Insert Hyperlink" option in Outlook does not contain
a browse button, so adding the path is very time consuming.

The "Send For Review" option in Word is sending an
attachment, not a link.

I can't think of a quick and easy way to do this. Any
suggestions?

Cheers,
Caroline

THere is a browse feature when you click on Insert then
Hyperlink in a new message... on the same line as the look
in box all the way to the right is a open folder click on
that and it says browse for file Try that

Thanks ALan...

This seems to work only if Word is the email editor. Then,
as you say it's easy. When Word is not my email editor,
then there is no browse option (I checked!)
Hopefully they do use Word for email editing, then I'm
fine! I'll have to find out (alas, I know a lot of people
who do not like to use Word for email).

It's a pity 'Send as Review' is not sending as a hyperlink
of some kind, although the help file in Word seemed to say
that this is what it is supposed to do.

BTW, This is for some people just converting from Corel,
so I'm trying to keep it really, really simple for them.

Cheers,
Caroline.
