Hi,

I have some code which attaches the current Word document
to an email (outlook 2002) and completes the recipient
address and subject line automatically.

This is fine but prompts me to save the document before I
can email it. If I create a new document and click
Word's own "mail as attachment" button I'm not required
to save the document first. It works for Microsoft but
not me :-(

So, is there a way around this problem?

Cheers

Mike.

Steve,

This is exactly the code I used for my macro. The only
problem is that this article mentions that I will need to
save the document first, something which I want to avoid
doing.

Are you suggesting I use the routing slip method?

Mike.
