Thanks, really. However, when I do that, I have Outlook Express set as the
email program. But, in Word 07, the option to sent to email recipient is still grayed out.... "Beth Melton" wrote: I think you missed the last paragraph. :-) Open IE and go to Tools/Internet Options.

Hmmm...that works for me, I can switch between Outlook and Outlook Express.
Try this: - Right-click the Quick Access Toolbar and click Customize Quick Access Toolbar - From the Choose Commands From list, select Commands Not In the Ribbon - Locate Send For Review and add it to your QAT Try using it instead of the Send to Mail Recipient - please let us know if it works. :-) Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

This is a peer-to-peer forum - if you want the official Microsoft response, then you can write to Microsoft product support services. So I was right about not holding our breath waiting for an apology. 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. OK so Milly is ignorant of the legal distinction between MEMBERS of clubs providing materials to other members and EMPLOYEES of clubs doing the same thing. She may also be ignorant of how Rotary clubs operate. |

I didn't mention that I tried Beth Melton's possible fix. Although the Send
to Mail Recipient icon is active & an email form appears, when I press "send message" on email form, Word "crashes". I tried this method 3 times with the same result. Has this fix worked for anyone?

I have a similar problem and I called support and got the issue fixed. But I
have now loaded the software into another pc as my license permits me to. The problem has now occurred in this pc. I would have thought that students would require the email option so that they can email work back into school or to their tutor as I would wish to do!!!! I know wish I had written down the steps that I had to work through when I last got this problem sorted. -- smicker "NickT" wrote: 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.

I had the exact same issue with Vista as my OS, Windows Mail and 2007 Student
Office. I followed the thread until I found this one- it worked, wasn't complicated and didn't ask me to do weird things I didn't understand .. This fix worked. 1. Quit your Office programs, please click on the following link to download the Messaging_registry.reg file to your desktop. http://officetoolsdown.googlepages.c...g_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. "That was easy" "Rock" wrote: Installed Vista Home and Office Home and Student software on my computer.
