I created a graphic and text chart as a drawing object but I cannot see it in
Normal view. When I email it out, the recipient cannot see it. I want to
build the document so others can view it in html and as an email attachment.
Help!

Try converting it to pdf. Drawing objects are not seen in normal (draft)
view, I think. (Haven't checked lately since I seldom use normal view.)

Just double checked. If a drawing object is inline with text, it is seen in
normal view. I still don't recommend sending Word documents electronically
unless you want the recipient to be able to edit the document. If you want
the equivalent of sending a paper document, use pdf format.
