Tj, Not sure what you're talking about, but I use Word as editor. If you see the paperclip on the toolbar above the To..., next to Accounts, there's a drop-down arrow. Click on the arrow. You'll see the options File... Item... Does this answer your question? Denise Hi, Dian. Yes, I'm talking Outlook (with Word as editor). As I'm typing this, I expanded the Insert menu. No ITEM option; and yes, the entire menu is expanded. Did you upgrade from 2k to XP? I'm looking at a clean install. tj ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
