Jim,

Bingo! I had the "hide file extensions for known file types" option selected. I unchecked the box, and now the extensions appear in the "save as" list. This is why I love these newsgroups - you folks are awesome!

Unfortunately, the mht file didn't get me the result I wanted. I guess I'll have to use the Word to PDF to Word to OE method I described in an earlier post.

Thank you very much for your assistance!

Well, it should work as well for you, but I suspect the problem may be that
you have extensions hidden under Control Panel/Folder Options/View tab.
Good luck and let us know if you have a problem with using it. Thanks for
the feedback.

Unfortunately, not in every version of Word 2003. When I call up the "save
as" window, my list of file types does not have any of the file extensions
you show in your .GIF file. It just shows the names of the file types.

But now I know which type you mean, and I will try it out. Thanks!

In Word 2003, the option on the "File/Save As" will look like the attached
gif file.

I'm not familiar with MHT files. When I try to "save as" that is not an
option. None of the options look close - might it also be called something
else? I have Word 2003 as part of Office 2003.

Thank you!

Easiest way to handle it might be to save the Word doc as a mht file, then
attach the mht file to your correspondence. Should work as it does here.
Just click on the pull down tab under File type when saving the document in
Word and change it to MHT.

Glad to hear you found part of the solution and sorry that using the MHT
format didn't do the job. But creating a PDF file is pretty quick depending
on the editor you use to make them. Good luck.
