Billy --
I think the better option is to save your file as an HTML document and
then paste the HTML code in.
Although, it looks like the new release of OOo 2.0.3 may have what you need.

That would put me back on square # 1. I'm still green about OO
(and much else). Is there some way to pry the contents out of
an attachment, and transfer the content to the body of a blank e-mail ?
If I could do that much it would be possible to use the e-mail
for E-Zine purposes.
thanks

Just a note of caution. Unless I am mistaken, using the PDF route means
you will have to attach the file to the e-mail.
Am I missing something?
Enjoy the heat wave,

Thanks for the advice. Will give the pdf option a try since layout IS
crucial.
New South Wales ? This time of year you must be freezing. We are
experiencing a heat wave here, rare for Oregon except in August.
Best wishes

I just joined less than an hour ago. Hopefully there are people on

Yes there are lots of them.
What I am trying to figure out is how to get material that I create
on Open Office to transfer directly to the BODY of e-mail.
Not as Attachments. Not as Attachments,
I'm repeating this because in a previous service I used a techie
simply could not understand that I wanted to do something
non-standard.
We don't use techies around here-- well a couple of people are, but the
vast majority are simple users.
I'm trying to create an E-Zine. Graphics, etc, would be utterly
useless as attachments. What exact steps are needed to get stuff from
Open Office into the text itself of an e-mail ?
The standard Email thing that OO does is to open your email program and
add the file as an attachment which as you say is not what you want it
to do.
There are two ways you can do it:
1. Produce it as an html file. I think most html email programs will
open an html file in-line... your graphics still show up as attachments
but the program will show them in with the text... might be worth
experimenting with to find out how to get the right results.
2. If I were producing something as an E-zine in which layout is
important I would save it as a pdf which OO does quite well.
