Outlook & Word

[MAC]

I've just started using Oulook. I have the latest version installed and
Office 2003. Every time I compose a message, or reply to a message, it's
using Word as the editor. How do I change this and use just Oulook. Also,
from a Word document, when I click on "send to", it pastes my document in
the body of the e-mail, instead of attaching it to the e-mail. What should
I do to: 1) Use Outlook as the editor; 2) Prevent it from copying my Word
doc to the body of my message?

Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Tools->Options->Mail Format - uncheck the option to use Word.

To send mail as an attachment from an Office program, choose Send to->Mail
Recipient As Attachment. You do not need to change any editor to accomplish
this. If the option is not showing, you will need to expand the menu using
the down arrows.

Thanks for your help.

What is happening is that when I use the "send to" option from Word at home,
my e-mailer (Eudora) will attach a copy of the document to the e-mail.

However, in my office when I do the same, it just pastes the doc in the body
of the e-mail, and recipients complain that the doc is not in the
attachment.

Any clues? Any help appreciated.
