How do I email a file from Microsoft Word. Says not SMTP server c.

[lwpjap]

I am trying to send a file to someone, but when I do-it says sometyhing about
POP3 and it not being/found SMTP. I am new at this. I can not find where I
begin to create an email acct from microsoft word. I have one on Charter.net,
but I wnt to directly email from Microsoft Word. Does this make any sense? If
someone was here, they'd see!
Thanks.

Word will use your default e-mail application. You don't have to set up
accounts within Word. From Windows Control Panel > Internet Options >
programs > set the e-mail application to your e-mail application - Outlook
causes the fewest problems.

I have come across this once before, the way I solved it was as follows:
Before opening Word access the Internet Options via the Control Panel.
On opening the Internet Options click on the tab 'Programs'.
You will now see a list of Internet Programs make sure that the box for
Email that you
have it set to your operating email (Outlook or Express).
Once done open you word document and click on File, Send to Mail Recipient
(as attachment).
this will now convert it into an attachment within an email.

Hope this helps
