Cannot attached a zip file in outgoing email.

[Eugene]

I am using Microsoft Word 2003 as my email editor. I have zipped some file in
a folder. I can view it when I open the folder. But, when I wish to attach
this zip file, I cannot view it on the open folder.

Please advise.

When you open the folder to attach the zipped file, look down at the bottom
and select All Files and then you should be able to see it.

Also, if you're using WinZip, I find the "Zip and Email" feature (on the
right-click menu in any Explorer window) invaluable. It zips the file and
attaches it to an email automatically.

Dear Carol,

When I choose to attach file in Microsoft Word which act as my email editor,
the open windows ask to select the file to insert, I have select "All Files",
but unable to see the zipped file. But when i able to see it on my explorer
windows.

I have try to select the file that I zipped before which the file is in the
same folder. message appear this zipped file already exist. Again, the "All
Files" already select.

Are you in fact using WinZip like Suzanne asked? If you are, then you

you're using to zip and unzip files and we will try to help you further.
