Vista - word 2007 send to buttton greyed out

what is different in putting your info in -is something different from the items listed

I'm nervous to import someones code to my computer I don't even know .....

Hi mjgrolex,

OK, lets illustrate how my code represents the data as supplied by Microsoft The "E-mail" command is missing or is unavailable in Excel 2007, in PowerPoint 2007, or in Word 2007.

Extract from the webpage referred to in the above link from Microsoft.


The code from my earlier post.
The first line, '@ECHO OFF', is a command that turns off the command-echoing (displaying the command on screen as it is executed). This is OPTIONAL.
The next 7 lines operate in the same way, so I shall describe the 1st one. The first part of the line is 'REG ADD'. This is a command line instruction to add or modify registry data. The next part, "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Messaging Subsystem" is the address of the variable that is going to be added or modified. The '/v' indicates that the following data is the variable name, in this case 'MAPI'. Following the variable name, '/t' indicates the type of variable, in this case 'REG_SZ' (a 'string' variable). The next item, '/d', indicates that the following data is going to be stored or placed into this variable. In this case, the data is '1'. Finally, the '/f' forces the data to be written to the registry without a prompt.

For full details of this, see the following Tutorial Registry Editing.

Thanks for the information -

I am not as advanced as you on this -

What I still don't understand is -I added all this to my registry -it now shows in my registry -so what is the point in using your stuff?

Again- I'm not a person who undertands all the deep program stuff here so bear with me -I'm trying to safely get my Word working as it should have come delivered

thanks for the time

The batch file that Dwarf recommended would have accomplished the same thing as you manually adding the keys, with the added benefit of you being able to copy and paste the batch file contents, thereby minimizing user error when typing.

Since you were able to export your son's reg entries, you did pretty much the same thing.
