The Absolutely Easiest Way To Send Office Documents Via Email

Please e-mail that file to me ASAP…” words you might hear quite often in our work envi­ron­ment.  So WHAT IS the fastest way to attach a Microsoft Office file in Groupwise?

I know, you usu­ally just click on the paper­clip in Group­wise and then go search­ing for the doc­u­ment. Per­son­ally, I like to mut­ter, “Now where did I save that file?” while fum­bling my way through the net­work to retrieve a copy of the file to attach and e-mail.

Here’s a way to make it easy on your­self by set­ting up a short­cut to Group­wise on your Microsoft Quick Access tool­bar!  Sim­ply click on the Quick Access Toolbar’s drop-down list (found in all Microsoft 2007–2010 soft­ware) and choose e-mail.  Now the e-mail short­cut is added to that software’s Quick Access toolbar.

How does it work?  It’s so easy you will be amazed!  Open the file you want to attach and then click on the E-Mail but­ton located on the Quick Access tool­bar.  POOF!  A new mes­sage will auto­mat­i­cally appear from Group­wise and the file will be instantly attached below.  You are ready to send.  That was easy…
