emailing word and excel from mac to pc

[steve]

I am using Office X on Ibook, and when I send word or
excel documents via email to my PC, they open on the PC
with "gobblegook" . How do I make them readable on PC or
send correctly? thanks

Have a look at the settings in the Entourage Mail & News Preferences,
"Compose" Tab: check if the Attachments encoding is set to
"Windows(Mime/Base64)" and compression to "None"... And make sure you don't
forget adding the ".doc" or ".xls" extension to the file names by checking
the corresponding checkbox.
