Send Embedded message in Outlook

Here is the scenerio.....

Admin staff draft e-mails for their bosses. The will type the entire email and fill in the TO, CC, and BCC boxes, then send it to their bosses (as an attachment) --- then there bosses review it (by double-clicking to open the attachment)

Here is the problem --- when they review it the send button is greyed out. They either have to drag it to the desktop to send or copy/paste into a new e-mail.

I've heard theories and different people seem to swear this "worked before" --- seems reasonable enough....I've tried changing permissions, RTF, HTML --- doesn't seem to matter...

Is this doable?????

Thanks experts!

Thanks, I got a lead that said it had something to do with the way it was saved...I'll test this when I get to work on Monday and let you know the results and awards points if it works. I have a good feeling about this one --- thanks again.

Thanks! Worked like a charm.

Also, if the sender doesn't send it that way, then the receiver can turn off word as the e-mail editor and hit Actions - forward
Or, drag to the desktop and double-click and send that way.

Just a little extra information!
