Default Can't send an attachment in Excel 2007


Hi,

I've had several versions of Excel but I am new to Excel 2007. I've had no
problem sending a worksheet as an "attachment" until 2007.

I did figure out that instead of File, you now have to press the pretty
button
and that it takes you to Send. Then you have two choices: Internet Fax and
"Send a copy of the document to other people." But every time I
click, "Send a copy of the document to other people," nothing happens. Does
anyone know if this is truly an option or just a header for your only choice
of sending a document by fax? I also thought that maybe it is a bug and the
header should be in Word unless worksheets are now called "documents" in
Excel 2007.

Maybe I am missing something and Mr. Gates, in his wisdom, believes that
people with computers now send only faxes and not emails.

Thanks for any help you can give me on this.

Take care,

Stephen

Default Can't send an attachment in Excel 2007


Hi,

Thank you for trying to help. For the record, I did add an email button to
the Quick Access toolbar but it did nothing. I also ran diagnostics to see
if there was some helpful update but to no avail.

Virusta and Office 2007 have been such a letdown mostly because XP was so
awesome and Office 2003 at least let you get some work done.

I did hopefully install the SendMail 2007 addon for Virusta. At least it is
in the Add-ons folder. But when I try to send something, I get the pop up
that says "RDB:SendMail for Excel 2007: 1.0." Below it is the dropdown box
"Send Workbook" and a Go button. But when I press Go, it doesn't give me an
email address to send it to.

Can you please tell me where I am sending it and how can I send it as an
attachment to an email recipient?

Thanks so much for your help.

Stephen

I don't have the "Send a copy of the document to other people" option at
all. On my Send menu item off the Office, I have "Email", "Email As PDF
Attachment", "Email As XPS Attachment" and "Internet Fax".

What is your default email program? Are you linked to an Exchange server?

Default Can't send an attachment in Excel 2007

Hi,


Hi,
Again, thanks for trying to help me.

All my default programs are clicked all default because I don't know what I
would change if I customized them.

My default email program is Windows Live Beta. I don't know what "linked to
an Exchange server" means so I'd suspect that I'm not. I work on a laptop
that isn';t linked to anyone and run businesses primarily by email.

I truly wish that I did have choices like "Email As PDF
Attachment", "Email As XPS Attachment" and "Internet Fax" but all I have is: "Send a copy of the document to other people" and "Internet Fax."


For the record, because it is a new computer, I have Virusta and Awful 2007
instead of awesome XP and quite workable Office 2003.

Thanks again for trying to help me.

Take care,

Stephen

Hi,

Again, thanks for trying.

Is this the file I was supposed to download: SaveAsPDFandXPS.exe?

I downloaded and installed it but nothing changed. But maybe it is because
I also installed the other gentleman's add-on. Would that affect this file?

I'm happy to download anything that might allow me to send a file as an
attachment but hopefully there isn't a conflict between the two. At the
moment, I can't really tell if there is a conflict because neither seems to
be working nor giving any error messages.

Thanks for trying.

Hi Stephen

If you have installed the PDF or PDF/XPS add -in there is a option in
Office ButtonSaveAs to save as PDF or XPS

And in the Send menu you can send as PDF

BTW: If you can't do a manual Send as attachment my mail add-in will not work
