408589 2005-11-29 03:09:00 Open the document then should be, File/Send To/Mail recipient. bruciebear (1478)

open up the spreadsheet......then hold alt and clik 'prntscrn' key......then open up paint and clik edit/paste.....that should give you your pic.....you can go from there......save as .jpg it's smaller for emailing

Thanks, but when I did as you suggested, the whole spreadsheet (with heaps of columns of statistics) was sent along with the chart. Using the print screen key with the chart itself selected and then opening it in 'Paint Shop Pro', saving it as jpg, worked perfectly.

I wonder how the chart can be sent as an attachment in an email?

408596 2005-11-29 07:14:00 I always do it by pasting it as a bitmap into Word (paste special) and send it as a .doc file.

Otherwise it can carry all the workings behind it.
