Hi,
We are networked at our office. We have Windows XP, and Word 2003.
On my own PC, when I select File - Send To - Mail Recipient as Attachment,
Word does what I want it to do: it attaches the Word document as a .doc
attachment to my Outlook email.
However, we have one PC we use only for scanning and OCR purposes. The
software we use is eCopy, and the hardware is an HPScanjet 8250. More about
the configuration of the PC I could not say.
Problem is this:
From eCopy, we click the OCR button, and eCopy dumps the resulting text into
a new Word document. That's fine.
From there, we want to email it to one of our typists for formatting. So we
go to File - Send To - Mail Recipient as Attachment. BUT instead of
attaching it as a Word document , it attaches the document as a .TXT file.
This is not a major problem, as we can obviously cut and paste into Word
from Notepad. But it is an inconvenience given the amount of scanning we do
in a day.
Is there a setting I can change so that it will save the attachment as a
..doc file instead of a .txt file?
Thanks,
