I have been sending out newsletters created in Word 2002. I was able to create great looking emails and send them to a short list of people without doing mailmerge.

Using Office 2002 I was able to click on the email icon and place the document in the body of my email. When I do this in Office 2007 it automatically attaches the document to the email.
Is there a way to use a document as the email body in Office 2007 without putting the document as an attachment?

In Word 2003, is there a way when creating/editing xml documents based on a custom schema to have drop-down boxes with the enumeration values from the schema?
Thanks,
Denise

I can't figure out how one can do point 3 discussed in point 3.

"Using building blocks to generate rich structures document fragments that can be easily inserted into a document and automatically bind to the custom XML already present"

A building block can contain content controls but the declarative mapping of your custom xml data to existing content controls happens in the document.xml. This is ok for existing controls. But when a user inserts a building block with a content control how can you map in the document.xml to that control that wasn't there yet in the first place ?

Dear All,

One thing i have to clarify that "Is it possible to open and edit the Office 2007 generated word document in previous version of Office. [May be this question is silly].

Learn more about Word 2007's support for seperating data from presentation

Hi,
I am working on the same problem as rodrigo and Zwah.

"- Rodrigo, you need to add the XML part through the Object Model. Once you do that, you can programatically set the content control to be bound to a node in your XML part."

Can you provide more information on this please? In this XML I have found items like
<w:dataBinding w:prefixMappings="xmlns:ns0='http://contoso.com/2005/contracts/commercialSale'" w:xpath="/ns0:contract[1]/ns0:placeExecuted[1]" w:storeItemID="{C65DD089-F388-4A84-8443-BC4CB07DEB45}" />
which appear to be what is required to map the xml to the content controls, but can't work out how do actually do it.

I would be very thankful for some detailed information about the link between the content control and the customXML property...

Thanks in advance
Martin
