Outlook Express Changes Word Attachments to Wordpad

[Gordon George]

I am frustrated!!!!!

I am trying to send specifically formatted Word documents via Outlook Express but after I attach them to the message and then open/test them before sending them, they've always been attached (changed) to WordPad.

How in the blazes can I attach a Word document and have it sent as a Word Document? And why is Outlook Express changing them?

Thanks for any and all help!!!!

Go to Start > Run.

Type winword /r and hit enter.
