atw: Re: a problem for 'word' specialists

Maybe the simple solution is to send it -- send it to yourself or
somebody you know. After that it should revert to just being a document
again.

Thanks Christine and Michael.
I could have simply solve the problem by 'copy-paste', but I need to
preserve the changes, and I have already worked on the document after
this happened. I tried Christine's advice, I agree it is probably
something very simple, but it's not from the toolbar.

Rafi, I know the problem - you just get that email header at the top of
the
page as a toolbar.  I can't remember how to get rid of it again though,
but
you may want to look at View, Toolbars.  Or try clicking or right
clicking
in one of the toolbar areas.  It's something astoundingly simple.

Hi Rafi (M)

I'll try and assist from memory, as follows:

First: In MS Word, try Ctrl+Z or Edit > Undo (name of action, such as:
send
as email) and see if that helps.

(You almost certainly hit a quick key combination that tried to E-mail
the
document in use.)

Second: As a safety measure, see if File > Save As... (press F12) is
available to save the "E--mail" as an RTF or Word document file, so that
you
have a backup, from which you can restore the text to the file.

If not then, and only if you recently saved your file before
unintentionally
trying to E-mail it:

Third: Close Word without accepting save changes or send file before
proceeding.

You might then be able to restart Word and reopen your doc file, either
from
the recent files list in the Start menu or from the recent files list in
the
Word File menu.

Also, to prevent this from happening again, in the MS Outlook Tools >
Options > Mail Format tab, deselect Word as its E-mail editor.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Michael Granat

Hi

I would appreciate some help with the following (stupid) problem: I was
working on a 'Word' document and I don't know what I pressed by mistake
but
the document has turned into an outlook express email. The format is
intact
but it has this email header.  This is the good old Word2000, I am quite
happy with it
otherwise. This happened to me once a few years ago, but I forgot how I
solved
the problem then.Would appreciate help with turning this email back into
a regular doc.


Regards,

Rafi
