In Office97, you could change the default mail application Word or Excel would use when you use the "Send to/mail reciepient" We use Lotus Notes, and I have been unable to get Office2000 to use Lotus when using that command. Has this feature been removed or can you still do it, and if you can, how???

Errors Using Lotus Notes 4.5 and Microsoft Office 97

Q167314

by msciulli

I had the exact same problem. They only way I got Word 97 to work with Notes was to install Microsoft Outlook. I do not use Outlook, but this works. (I just reinstalled MS Office 97 Professional.)

After you click on "send to", a "choose profile" screen appears. Click on "new" and set up a new profile (I just used my name) and uncheck every option except Lotus Notes mail.

You should uninstall Office97, run eraser97, and reinstall Office97. You can download eraser97 from Microsoft's web site.

I installed Outlook and then went to the Control Panel and set up the Mail system to use Notes, at that point Outlook will serve as a front end to Notes for MAPI compliant mail, although I don't recommend it. After that, Office starts working normally and sends mail through Notes.
