Dear Michael

Thanks for all your help

Although I did not get this work, I see the principle.

For now Sue's code does the job, although I will come back to your
suggestions as my experience grows again.

The easiest is if you use Word as e-mail editor:

oWordDoc.Copy
Application.ActiveInspector.WordEditor.Paste

Sorry, not used VB6 for a couple of years!!

the following uses the word text without formatting

mItem.Body = oWordDoc.Content
