microsoft office
« on: April 19, 2012, 10:51:23 am »
Quick question about microsoft office. When I type up a letter and want to email it to somebody it sends the document along with the tools to alter it. I am missing something too simple here. All I need to do is email the typed document.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What I do is save the document in a folder. I then open my email and attach the doc to the email. I dont send them using the Word's "send to" option. Sorry if its 'clear as mud'

"the tools"  is probably a viewer as not everyone has Word.  A better option would be to send it as a PDF.

control S will save it to your docs. know where your save folder is.  it's usually your documents folder.  then go to your email program, choose attach, you should get a box that lets you find your doc folder, choose the doc and click open (usually), and doc will attach to email.

are you sure you are not trying to send a doc out of the draft folder??

Thanks all, we finally figured it out. Need to save it as a  .docx  file to be able to send it as a file that can just be viewed.
