No I am not using Oulook but... here is a reply I received directly from the
MS Office 2007 team... AND ... it worked for me!!! I am delighted with the
results.

Here are a few steps that should help us resolve the problem:

Step 1: Import registry
============================

1. Quit your Office programs, please click on the following link to download
the Messaging_registry.reg file to your desktop.

http://officetoolsdown.googlepages.com/Messaging_registry.reg

2. Double click on this Messaging_registry.Reg file to import the registry.
When you are asked whether you want to import the registry, click Yes.

3. Start Office programs like Word/Excel to check whether the E-mail icon is
useable.

Step 2: make Windows Mail Default

· Click Start.

· Type default programs in the Start Search box.

· Click Default Programs under Programs in the search results.

· Now click Set your default programs.

· Highlight windows Mail on the left.

· Click Set this program as default.

· Click OK.

· Click on Set program access and computer defaults.

· Click on Microsoft Windows.

· Click on OK.

· Now Check for the issue.

I am trying to send Office 2007 documents as attachments in Windows mail.
Using XP I was able to attach the document from MS Office. When I try the
same in Office 2007/Windows Mail the option to send as an attachemnt is
greyed out. Send as aFAX is bold and apparently a viable option.

Is this type of procedure impossible between Office 2007 and Windows Mail (
vs for example, Office 2007 and Outlook?) or am i doing something wrong?
