I am using Office 2007 with Vista on a new computer. Long tyime user of the
Office products but never experienced this issue before. When I send a file
as an attachment to an email and try to send the email from Excel, the email
will remain open for several mintues instead of simply disappearing as it did
in the past. Some times, I have to close and confirm that it was actually
sent by Outlook.

Not sure if it is a setting in Outlook or Excel (does seem to happen in our
programs that allow you to send email from their menu bar).....

Anyone have any suggestions?
