How to Send Single Spreadsheets - Microsoft Excel

Question:
"I have a file in excel that has 3 worksheets in it. Twice a month I have to email this report to another co-worker. I have been emailing the entire file (all 3 worksheets) to her via the "send to" method in Outlook Express but she only really needs 1 of three worksheets each time. How can I email her just one worksheet at a time?"

Answer:

There should be an <Email> button on your Excel toolbar to the left of the <Save> button. The button will look like a small open envelope with a letter in front of it.

Select the worksheet you want to send and then single-click the <Email> button with the left mouse button.

The <Office Assistant> will appear (that irritating little paper clip that usually only shows up when you don't want it to).

It gives you the choice of sending the entire document as an attachment, or the selected worksheet in the body of the email.

Single-click on <Send the current sheet as the message body>.

At the top of the worksheet, an area will appear where you can type in the email address and a subject heading for the email, just as if you were sending mail through Express.

Type in the address and subject, and then single-click on <Send this Sheet>.

Only that worksheet will be sent, in the body of the email.
