preacher · External Since: Jun 01, 2007 Posts: 1

i can send by fax but not even allowed the option of sending a word doc by
email, and that was never a problem with the 2003 program; am now running
2007 office/student verson

What do you mean by "not even allowed the option"? If you're not seeing the
mail button on your toolbar, try:
File, Send To, mail recipient.
Hope that helps!

IIRC, Office 2007 Students version doesn't have Outlook, so you need to make
sure that under Internet Options, Programs, the correct email client has
been set.

I have the full Professional version of Office 2007 and the "send to" command
is simply not available in on the File Menu in Word, Excel or Powerpoint. I
am running Outlook 2007 as the mail client.

Looking at a number of other sites I am not an orphan.

Did the Ofice 2007 product ship with the necessary Registry updates?

I used Office 2003 previously and out of the box it was not a problem. I
have encountered a few issues with 2007

I also have just installed Word 2007 and when I click file sent to, only the
Fax is available, the email is greyed out. Any other ideas?-

Not to seem dumb, but how. I went into Internet Options, I'm using Windows
Mail that came with Vista.

Of course, there is no File menu in 2007, but I guess you mean the Office
menu or Pizza Button. It certainly worked out of the box for me.

See if the following article helps:

Just like Terry said. Open IE, Tools, Internet options, Programs, Internet
programs, Set programs, Set your default programs, ...

Or

Start, Control panel, Programs, Default programs, Set your default programs,
....

Take your pick - both get you to the exact same place.

I have tried to go through the procedure mentioned here about setting the
defaults, but still have not been able to activate the 'email from Word' in
Word 2007 and Windows Mail. Is there a specific conflict with these
programs? I have found several people with the same problem on this forum.
I also tried to understand the advice in http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/t0002.htm
but find it a little out of my league!
