Default email icon greyed out in Office Home and Student 97

Installed Vista Home and Office Home and Student software on my computer. I
tried to send out a word document to a friend through microsoft mail, but
can't because the email icon is greyed out under the send to menu. I am using
Vista's Mail not outlook.
Also;
Can any one tell me why the headers in this suite states non commercial use,
this is a retail version I purchased and is activated but I am unable to
acces the web from inside the programs.

The Home and Student edition is only licensed for non-commercial use.

compatable?

I have a similar problem. E-mail option is greyed out in all products in
Office Home and Student 2007. I can't send documents. The e-mail client I am
using is Windows Live mail desktop version. Can anyone help.

Home and student versions are for non-commercial use, e.g., you can't run a business with this software as that is not something a home user or student user would need. Ever wonder why the license for this version is so low and allows 3 installs? Now you know.

No, MVPs are never condescending.

After furious head scratching, NickT asked:


Note that NickT is *NOT* the OP. Apparently, not all MVPs are careful
readers.

And it would also seem some MVPs aren't particularly careful in
choosing to whom to reply. NickT *COULD* be a student attempting to
share Office documents with others for a collaborative school project.
There's nothing in his posting that would suggest business use. Unless
one wants to associate the OP's presumed illicit use automatically
impugns NickT's intended use.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Milly's appology. She likes piling
on and playing hall monitor too darn much.

Sorry to say but I think your reply is ridiculous especially considering you
are an MVP. I'm not in business and nor is rest of family. We are home users
wanting to send various documents like letters, material that I've created
for my Rotary club to aid a Aids orphans home initiative in Africa and other
personal stuff to others. I can't believe that MS took this feature out as it
was considered purely 'commercial'. Would very much appreciate a proper,
considered reply to my query about this problem from the Office 2007 Product
Manager if you can get hold of him/her please.

No one said you can't send a document via email. Use Outlook Express if
you're using Win XP or Windows Mail if you're using Vista.

This is a peer-to-peer forum - if you want the official Microsoft response, then you can write to Microsoft product support services.

From the Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student page:

Are there license restrictions to Office Home and Student 2007?

Yes. Office Home and Student 2007 is licensed only for noncommercial use by households. It cannot be used in commercial (business) situations.

FYI - non-profit is considered a business.
