Thanks for the reply I'm using Yahoo mail...It keeps telling me that it may be a corrupt file or that it will not open..I sent a tester e-mail to one of my siblings and the attachment was blank ??

Make sure the works file is closed when you are trying to attach it. Otherwise copy out the contents and create a new document and see if that behaves the same way.
