| I am using Office/Outlook 2003
||
||| I have WinXP w/Outlook 2003. When I right click a file and choose
||| Send To\Mail Recipient, the feature does not work. I have got it to
||| work one time by going to Control Panels\Add Remove Programs\Set
||| Program Access and Defaults. There I select Microsoft Windows,
||| (instead of Custom), restart the computer and I can then send to
||| mail recipient, but only one time. After that I get the Error
||| message, Microsoft Office Outlook, The operation failed. This
||| feature works when I select Outlook Express as my default Email
||| client in Internet options. Please can someone help! Thanks in
||| advance. Gregg

||| Hi, Milly, I tried this with Outlook open after your question (Is
||| Outlook open when you try this?) and it worked multiple times. Then
||| I closed Outlook and tried it and got the same error (Microsoft
||| Office Outlook, The operation failed). I then reopened Outlook and
||| tried the Send to Mail Recipient feature several times with several
||| files and just kept getting the error until I restart, and open
||| Outlook before I use the Send To feature. It seems once I get the
||| error I have to restart to reset it. Any more advice? Thanks Gregg
