Re: Word 2007 Crashes When Sending Document As Email

Monte,

The previous method does not send as an attachment it sends it as HTML email, as did prior versions. If you want a true .DOC or
..DOCx or .PDF or .XPS so that they render as seen in the original then those will be attachments.

Out of curiousity, where are you seeing the claim you refer to that you can email .doc files as part of the body of an email using
Outlook Express?

Even with the "bug", a user still has the ability to send a Word 2007 DOCX
as an email attachment. But that is not the same as sending "the" document
as an email. Copy and pasting the contents of the document does not always
work because the formatting may shift or somehow become corrupt.

Bottom-line, the application is supposed to work in the fashion it was
designed and marketed. Microsoft can not continue to market the application
as having a certain function only to have it not ever work - and pretend they
never made that claim. that is why they are going to fix the "bug". It
would be nice and honest of Microsoft to publish an official disclaimer and
or notification to that effect. But that's just me.>>
