Can Windows Live Mail Work With Word 2007 to Send To Mail Recipien

Switched to using Windows Live Mail as default e-mail applicaton on my
Windows Vista 64bit operating system & Microsoft Office Home Edition. Now
can not email open Windows Word 2007 document because Send To Mail Recipient
feature only sends by Windows Mail feature which is not the default email
program.

Is there a way to setup Word to allow an open document to be emailed through
my Windows Live Mail account or can I setup an account in Windows Mail using
my hotmail email account? I do not have another email account that I use
other than Hotmail to send and recieve emails.

Would like not to have to save document then open Windows Live Mail, attach
document, then send. Working right out of the open Word 2007 document to
send email makes more sense.

Thank you for your help.

It may make more sense to you, but I don't think it will work unless you
have Outlook installed. Outlook's install includes a so-called MAPI handler
which Word needs in order to send a document via the default mail client.
