sending document from Word 2002 "File" menu

[KAR]

My program Word 2002
My OS XP
My Problem: On File>Send to>Mail Recipient (for Review)
This will not highlight, i.e., it's not functional.

I have already gone to Tools>Options>General and clicked and unclicked the
Mail as Attachment box per the help menu.

My e-mail is Earthlink Total Access but I have (and use) Outlook Express
which I could use as my address book is duplicated on both.

Any suggestions?

TIA
