Powerpoint 2002 - Email embedded Word doc

[thatrenowned]

I originally posted this in the Office forum, but I'm guessing its probably better in here!

Just got a quick Powerpoint question.

I'm creating a presentation which takes the user through a process with several options (e.g. links to different web pages to fill out information before continuing etc), but I've ran into a problem with an embedded Word document.

I've set it up so that you click on the Word doc icon and it goes to edit mode (which is working correctly).

Next to the Word doc icon I have a button which is used to send an email (fills out the address and subject), but I don't know how to make it also attach the embedded word doc to the email. I'm guessing I'll probably need to use a macro but to be honest I don't know where to start!

If its not possible then I can just set the word doc to 'open' mode instead and tell the user to manually save, attach, send.

Any help is appreciated!

Even if you have any links to some decent VBA tutorials that would be helpful...I did a google search but all I ever find is people advertising their VBA books!

Thanks
