Or let the macro create a new document, copy the selection into it and * send* that new document as a .pdf attachment, but I guess that is what you meant, wasn't it? Because I think someone said that it is already possible to export a highlighted portion to PDF, but not to directly send it as an attachment, or did I misunderstand the whole problem? I am still on OpenOffice.org 1.1.5, since my PC is too slow for OpenOffice.org 2.0 (I tried, and it was unusable), so I can't try this myself... unless I carry my girlfriend away from her laptop and try it there, of course... By the way, how does that "Send as PDF attachment" thing work? Can you actually send email from OpenOffice.org 2.0? Or maybe I misunderstood that too... I don't think that is possible with OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 anyway... Regards Johnny ---------------------------------------------------------------------
