More of a question than an issue regarding emailing a mail merge document with Word #25

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Choosing "send email messages" on a merged document.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I see the merged documents in my Drafts folder, but for every document, Chrome 
opens a new tap.  So if I'm creating 80 documents, it opens 80 tabs. Is there a 
way to prevent that or is it just the way it is?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using Word 2007 on a machine running Windows XP.

Please provide any additional information below.
I teach in a middle school and we're attempting to email parents a particular 
document for their student.  This is a fantastic solution, since our default 
email account is gmail.

I think there is an issue with attachments, but if you make it a google doc and 
share it, just put the link in the draft to get around it.

There is a daily limit on the free version.

Sending immediately isn't currently supported, opening a new tab for each page 
can be avoided:

From the homepage:

By default tvhgooglemapi will open the draft in a new browser tab/window. If 
you are using Google Chrome there is an extension that makes sure that only one 
tab for gmail is open (and also only one for google calendar,...) Using this 
extension will cause the draft to be opened in the tab where you had gmail 
open, some people may find that desireable. You can find it here:
