Office/Outlook editions must match for office automation to work - the fact that you have it working on your XP machine means that the Office Gods were smiling on you that day or you sacrificed a particularly plump chicken.

| So Milly and Bob I-Luck notwithstanding, you're telling me that there
| is/was no backward compatibility from OL 2003 and Office 2000, and
| that net work settings have nothing to do with my problem?
|
| FYI-The "Send...attachment" feature does work in both word and excel,
| but only on the XP machine. Outlook settings are the same for both
| machines.
|
| Anyone else out there who has any ideas re all this, please let me
| know.
|
| Thanks RCF
