How do you hide the to/from/subject/intro email bars

M

Marcia Mason

When I open a WORD file the display has an email header with
to/from/subject/intro that takes up too much room. I can't get rid of it,
and don't want to see it. How do I hide it? There is no option in VIEW.

Marcia,

Assuming Word 2003 or earlier, click File | Send To | Mail Recipient. This
should remove the email-related fields from the document. Undoubtedly there
is similar functionality in Word 2007, but I don't know what it is off the
top of my head.

This is WORD 2007, and there is no "File" to click, so that won't work. I am
so lost, and nothing I type into the help-search comes up with an answer.

Marcia,

Unfortunately, I've only just recently started working with Word 2007, so
I'm not completely up to scratch on it. However, I did find some information
that might help you. Search the Help topics for "send to mail recipient" and
look for an article entitled "Send a document in an e-mail message". There
is a rather involved process described in the section entitled "Send the
body of a document as an e-mail message" that may provide the answer you
require.

Add the Send to Mail Recipient button from the all commands group to the QAT
(Quick Access Toolbar). This will then work as a toggle, as in earlier
versions, to remove/display the e-mail header.

Thanks Graham. I was at work before and didn't have time to distill the
process from the Help into something a bit more succinct.
