SUMMARY
Version 2.0 of Microsoft Word for Windows uses a SendMail macro to enable
the Send Mail menu selection. This macro ships with version 3.0 of
Microsoft Mail. You are given the option to install the macro only for Word
versions 2.0 and 2.0a for Windows, not for version 2.0b. When you use Word
for Windows with this macro installed, you will see the Send option on the
File menu.
Word 2.0b for Windows has support for Simple MAPI built in (that is, a
macro is not necessary), and displays the Send option on the File menu if
the WIN.INI file contains the following setting:
Unfortunately, Word 2.0b for Windows does not check for the existence of
the old SendMail macro when it upgrades a version 2.0 installation, so if
you installed your products in the following order, you may see duplicate
Send menu options:
- Microsoft Word version 2.0 or 2.0a for Windows
- Microsoft Mail for Windows, version 3.0
- Microsoft Word version 2.0b for Windows
Although this duplication may be confusing, it will not cause any
functionality problems.
If you are using Word 2.0b for Windows, you can eliminate the duplicate
Send menu option selection by simply deleting the SendMail macro. To do
this, choose Macro from the Tools menu, select SendMail, and then choose
Delete.
