Hi

I am familiar with Google Doc where I can create a new Doc and add "E-Mail Template". This allow me to collaborate on a email contact when then can we sent using the email client directly (see attachement).

How does this works with MS Words? Can't believe its not possible..

Thanks, Stefan

    Sending the body of a Word document as an e-mail has no support in Word online, as far as I know. It does exist in the full Windows version of Word.

    Your second list item, "Share the Word Doc to several peers to work on the E-Mail content," has no direct equivalent. The suggestion from my previous reply will let multiple people collaborate on the shared document. Technically, you won't be collaborating in the e-mail itself, though.

    Hi Stefan

    Thanks for your response. It's not what I am looking for. Hence I compare what I used in the past.

    • Create a Word Online Doc and add "E-Mail Draft", this will add a template to add TO, CC etc.
    • Share the Word Doc to several peers to work on the E-Mail content
    • There was a button in the Template, so the final sender was able to click it and the content has been migrated to an E-Mail.

    Super smart, so I thought it can't be MS is not having this.

    Br, Stefan

    In Word for the web, you can share the current document (via link) with a mail recipient, if that helps. See https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/share-a-document-d39f3cd8-0aa0-412f-9a35-1abba926d354#id0ebbd=web.
