Send Document as Microsoft Word doesn't

users
#1

LO 4.3.0.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 - Thunderbird as default email client.
In LO Writer, if I click on File>Send>Email as Microsoft Word then it opens a new message window in TBird, but with no attachment, which rather negates the function!
I use this facility to be able to keep one format of document on my machine, rather than having to do a "Save As" into MS Word format.
Is this a bug in 4.3?

And it seems that the usual Mail function does exactly the same thing - opens a new message window, but with no attachment.

Must be a bug because it works in my LO 3.6 and 4.1.

Hi :slight_smile:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport
or
https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/bug/

(both should work. One is prettier and easier, the other gives more
control and has more flexibility but is less pretty and simple)

If it is a bug it might be Linux specific, because it works on Win7 x64
with LO 4.3.0.4 and TB.
I don't have access to my Linux machines right now, but I will take a
look later.
