When I click FILE-SEND TO-MAIL RECIPIENT in an attempt to send a worksheet in
the body of a Microsof outlook 2003 e-mail, the recipient receives the
worksheet, but the format of the worksheet changes and the backround color of
the cells are set to black. How do I prevent the cells from reformatting?
The reciepients are using the same version of Outlook and excel as I am using.
