| | Re: Sending Word 97 Docs from a Vista Laptop Are you having the same problem as "JT"? That error happens when the file is still open in Word. The file you are attaching to Windows Mail cannot be open in any other program. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "first step" <firststep@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:97F6D9B6-8592-4276-8A75-66767FDEDCAA@xxxxxx Quote: > > > "JT" wrote: > Quote: >> I have just finished writing a letter with Word 2007 and saved it as a Word >> 97-2000 doc so that I can print it out on my PC (which has Word 2000).

| | Re: Sending Word 97 Docs from a Vista Laptop Thanks!!! That worked for me. Now, quite why they designed Vista that way is another question.....

| | Re: Sending Word 97 Docs from a Vista Laptop It's not a Vista thing, strictly a Windows Mail limitation. If you upgrade to Windows Live Mail, you can attach files that are still open elsewhere. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "erinchan" <erinchan@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:66EB124E-C291-4122-BBF6-020FF09F7AEB@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks!!!

| | Re: Sending Word 97 Docs from a Vista Laptop What are Vista type fonts? And do you need to use different fonts when saving it as 97-2003 so the recipient can open it?

| | Re: Sending Word 97 Docs from a Vista Laptop You mean, as far as not being able to attach files that are open elsewhere? For Windows Mail, that will always happen, regardless of your settings. The only permanent fix is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "folusho" <folusho@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:839CE4B3-BE1F-4500-81D8-15F006A6143A@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks Gary, that worked for me as well....is this something that will always > be the case or can you adjust the security settings in tools... > > "RAY" wrote: > Quote: >> >> >> "JT" wrote: >> Quote: >> > I have just finished writing a letter with Word 2007 and saved it as a Word >> > 97-2000 doc so that I can print it out on my PC (which has Word 2000).
