pressed the wrong key !

Question

After writing a WORD document I usually click on FILE...then SHARE...then SEND DOCUMENT and the document is placed within an email for me to send.  Unfortunately when i got to the 'SEND DOCUMENT" stage it gave me an option of allowing Word access to whatever it needed access to - and I pressed NO by mistake.  Now my document won't link to an email - does anyone know how I reverse this situation as when i now press SEND DOCUMENT it simply sends me to Outlook but doesn't do anything !!

Many thanks,  Andy

Answer 1

Try closing the file without saving the changes, then open it & try again.

If that doesn't work, Quit the program altogether, launch it again, then open the document to see if it will send.

Answer 2

Hi -; thats exactly my problem!  When i Do that it opens the default mail applicaitn but doesnt allow me to attach anything!

Answer 3

yes that does work - its just the long-winded way of doing it.  I was hoping to be able to reverse what I had already accidentally done!

Hi Andrew,

Please try checking whether you can share the document as an email attachment by the following steps:

1. In the upper-right corner, click the Share icon and then click Send Attachment.

2. Click Document or PDF.

3. Word will open your default email application and attach your file to a new message. Just fill in the details, like email addresses and a short message, and click Send.

You may need to check whether you have set Outlook as the default email application.

Regards,

Tisky

Have you tried creating an email message and attaching your Word file? That should still work.
