| OK, so know we know that sending an email from Word is working. Try sending
| a test mailmerge message with the Mail format box set to Plain text.

| Sorry - Yes, I did just send a test email to myself by filling in the
| address
| from FileSend and the message arrived as I had created it.

| | OK - I did not literally send from the file menu in Word - the article
| I
| | referred to never mentions doing that. However, I did just try that
| and
| | basically it then wants me to fill in the email address and it has no
| | option to
| | merge the data file with the document. If I was going to do that, I'd
| just
| | send
| | individual messages which is what I was trying to avoid - that and
| sending
| | it
| | bcc. I've pretty much decided that this won't work and I'm trying
| another
| | software, but thanks for your help.

| | | That does not sound like the correct answer to the question. With
| | documnet
| | | open in Word, select Send from the File menu and complete the steps
| that
| | | then appear and see if the mail item so generated is sent.

| | Word
| | | 2003
| | | | | following how to on Answer Box but the option to merge to

| | | not
| | | | | available in
| | | | | Word. Found instructions on editing the registry to

| | | this
| | | | but
| | | | | when I
| | | | | tried to import the file created on notepad, it said it

| | | | | file
| | | | | despite the fact that I saved it with the .reg extension.
| | | | |

NB, sending via HTML does not work with OE6, or, as far as I know, with any
other e-mail program except the full Outlook.
