Word 2007 does not send doc as e-mail, only attachment?

I am having the same problem - I have added the send to mail recipient button
to the QAT, but it is showing as disabled. How can I enable this option?
Does it have anything to do with having Word 2007 but an older version of
Outlook?

Thanks!

But, see if the following page of fellow MVP, Peter Jamieson's web site
helps:
