WD97: File Send To Sends Attachments Only as Word Documents

APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Word 97 Standard Edition
This article was previously published under Q184980
SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Word, the Send To command on the File menu attaches the
current document as a Word 97 document in a mail message, even if the file
is saved in a non-Word format or earlier Word version. This problem occurs
when you have the Mail As Attachment option selected in the General options
dialog box. (To locate the Mail As Attachment option, click Preferences on
the Tools menu, and then click the General tab.)
WORKAROUND
To mail a file in a format other than Word, save the file in that format
from Word, and then attach the file to a mail message from within your mail
program.
