Peter,

I'm confused. Last night I checked right before I went to bed, and you had
a very detailed explanation but it's not here today. Do you have any idea
what happened to it? ?

You will need to edit the registry. Proceed with caution!

In your Windows folder, locate and run regedit.exe. If you're
on
an
older
version of Windows you might need to use regedt32.exe.

Look for a key called

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MiĀ*crosoft\Windows Messaging

I would be surprised if it was not there in recent versions of
Windows,
but if it is not, add it.

If it is there, I would expect to see

b. A number of "values" with the same names as are in the
above
list -
MAPI, MAPIX etc.
c. An additional value called InstallCmd

If you cannot see the values, you need to add them. For each
of
the
values in the above list
d. Right click "Windows Messaging Subsystem" and select
New|String
Value.

Note that although some of these items have numeric values,
they
should
all
be entered as String Values.
e. Enter the name, as above
f. Double click on the name. A dialog box appears. Enter the
value
(e.g.
for the name CMCDLLNAME, enter mapi.dll) and click OK
g. You may also need to create the InstallCmd value, although
I
rather
doubt it. I am less sure about this and about what should go
in
there.
On
my system, the value is:
rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection MSMAIL 132 msmail.inf

When you have done them all, press F5. Then close all copies
of
Word
and
restart it - or restart Windows, then restart Word and see if
the
e-mail
option has appeared.

No. I am not sure which detailed explanation you mean, because I have posted
reasonably detailed replies to all your messages so far, and I can see them
all in this message thread. I have reposted the link to my website article,
and my most recent reply below. If this message does not contain what you
need, ask again.

1. My website page is at:-

http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/t0002.htm

2. My most recent message replied to your

" so it should look like this?"

and said:


I believe so, except...
(a) the REG_5Z are actually REG_SZ.
(b) The capitalisation of OLEmessaging should be OLEMessaging (capital M)
but I doubt if that makes any difference
(c) My InstallCmd shows

InstallCmd REG_SZ rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection MSMAIL 132
msmail.inf

In other words, it is "setupapi" rather than "setupap", and
"InstallHinfSection" rather than "Install-in/Section"

However, the InstallCmd value is the one that most likely needs to vary from
system to system.

I followed the instructions, but email is still not an option. When I click
on "Tools" and the "Letters and Mailngs," I have a choice between "Letters,
Envelopes, Labels, or Directory." Shouldn't there be an "email" option? I'll
put what I have in the "Windows Messaging Subsystem" folder.
(Default) REG_SZ (value not set)

CMC REG_SZ 1

CMCDLLNAME REG_SZ mapi.dll

CMCDLLNAME32 REG_SZ map32.dll

I believe so, except...
(a) the REG_5Z are actually REG_SZ.
(b) The capitalisation of OLEmessaging should be OLEMessaging (capital
M)
but I doubt if that makes any difference
(c) My InstallCmd shows

InstallCmd REG_SZ rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection MSMAIL 132

In other words, it is "setupapi" rather than "setupap", and
"InstallHinfSection" rather than "Install-in/Section"

However, the InstallCmd value is the one that most likely needs to vary
from
system to system.

In your Windows folder, locate and run regedit.exe. If

Look for a key called

I would be surprised if it was not there in recent

If it is there, I would expect to see
a. A subkey called MSMapiApps
b. A number of "values" with the same names as are in
the
above
list -
MAPI, MAPIX etc.
c. An additional value called InstallCmd

If you cannot see the values, you need to add them.
For

d. Right click "Windows Messaging Subsystem" and
select

OK, just to be sure I didn't miss anything really obvious, I double-checked
here with
a. Windows XP
b. Outlook Express configured as my default e-mail program
c. no [mail] section in WIN.INI

It appears that exactly one value in the registry makes Word display the
relevant e-mail option, and that is the MAPIX item. So just in case there
has been any miscommunication, one last thing you could try is to edit copy
the following text into a .reg file (let's call it mapix.reg) and use the
File|Import menu option in the registry editor to import the value.

The file is as follows - copy/paste it into a Notepad file. There should be
4 lines. The second line is blank.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Messaging Subsystem]
"MAPIX"="1"

Here, I usually have a full version of Office including Outlook, which may
be what is causing the difference. Unfortunately, although it is clear that
Word looks at the MAPIX option, I do not know what else it checks before
displaying the relevant options.

Where would you suggest getting further help?


I suggest that you go to

http://support.microsoft.com

the first option in the section that says:

There may be an equivalent page on the Microsoft website in your country or

If you do that, I strongly recommend that you draw their attention to this

File|Import menu option in the registry editor to import the value.

The file is as follows - copy/paste it into a Notepad file. There should be
4 lines. The second line is blank.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Messaging Subsystem]
"MAPIX"="1"

Here, I usually have a full version of Office including Outlook, which may
be what is causing the difference. Unfortunately, although it is clear that
Word looks at the MAPIX option, I do not know what else it checks before
displaying the relevant options.

Where would you suggest getting further help?


I suggest that you go to

http://support.microsoft.com

and choose

the first option in the section that says:

There may be an equivalent page on the Microsoft website in your country or
region.

If you do that, I strongly recommend that you draw their attention to this
newsgroup thread to avoid wasting a lot of time.

Sorry we did not succeed,

No. I am not sure which detailed explanation you mean, because I have

them

2. My most recent message replied to your

and said:


I believe so, except...
(a) the REG_5Z are actually REG_SZ.
(b) The capitalisation of OLEmessaging should be OLEMessaging
(capital
M)
but I doubt if that makes any difference
(c) My InstallCmd shows

InstallCmd REG_SZ rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection MSMAIL
132
msmail.inf

In other words, it is "setupapi" rather than "setupap", and
"InstallHinfSection" rather than "Install-in/Section"

However, the InstallCmd value is the one that most likely needs to
vary
from
system to system.

If you are uncertain because you have done all that and the

wrong

in

Do I need to delete
the keys I already put in the reg file?


No.

Also, do I need to make a new key and call that mapix.reg?


No. When you import the .reg file, the registry editor will create the key
(and any bits of the "path" to the key) that it needs. If there is no MAPIX
key, it will create it. If there is an existing MAPIX key in the right
place, it should overwrite the value. It will not overwrite any other keys
or values or delete any other keys or values.

Okay, I deleted the mail section in the win.ini file.


OK, you din't need to do that (I only did it to make sure that it was the
MAPIX key in the registry that was having the desired effect). I would put
the entries back into WIN.INI.

By the way, if you do end up going to Microsoft technical support (or
anywhere else) and find the solution to this problem I would appreciate it
if you could post the answer here.

It appears that exactly one value in the registry makes Word display the
relevant e-mail option, and that is the MAPIX item. So just in case there
has been any miscommunication, one last thing you could try is to edit
copy
the following text into a .reg file (let's call it mapix.reg) and use the
File|Import menu option in the registry editor to import the value.

The file is as follows - copy/paste it into a Notepad file. There should
