Hi Dave,

I had a play with this a couple of weeks back but can't remember all the details, but a couple of possibilities, until a real expert comes along:

If you have Word open as an editor inside Outlook you should be able to use GetObject to address it (provided you don't have other instances of Word open at the same time)

Alternatively, if you save your Word document as HTML and then open the .htm file using OpenAsTextStream, read the whole thing into a string variable, you should then be able to set the .HTMLBody of the message to it.

I'll root out a bit of code if you like
