Under Windows XP and Office XP (which included MS Outlook), I could send an
email from within an Excel spreadsheet. With my new HO&S 2007, I can not do
this. If I purchase and install a stand-alone version of Outlook 2007, will
I be able to send an email directly from Excel 2007? Has anyone had the
same experience and been able to resolve this any differently?

Thanks
 
Excel and Word need certain MAPI handlers to be present in order
to be able to hand off a document to the default email program.
Reinsert your Office CD, select "install additional components/
custom install". There should be an option to install the MAPI handler.

Gary,

I just insert my original CD and I do not see any such option. It looks
like I only can install the four products that came on the CD.

I wonder - My computer came installed with MS HO&S 2007 and all I did was
put in the activation code off my original CD that I bought. I wonder if I
took off the original programs and reinstalled HO&S 2007, would that make
this work?
 
I don't have the Student version CD, only the full Pro one,
so I can't tell you exactly where to find that option.
Reinstalling may or may not work, but it's worth a try.
For more help with this you might want to consult one of
the Office or Outlook forums.

How do I get to these additional forums?
