windows mail for vista?

Im running windows mail on vista hp laptop.
Im not the common user but support engineer.
From a couple of days before, the owner cannot send attachments via email.
A message telling me that the files cannot be found pop up when the message is sent.

Has anyone had the same issue?
How you can solve it?

An answer from the Microsoft Newsgroups:

"Having just spent the last hour on the phone to MS Tech Support I have found out what is happening here (it was happening to me too)

If you are trying to send a file, and the office application that created that file is still open then you will receive this error. Try saving the file and then closing MS Word, when I send the file now it works fine & dandy.

So to roundup if the file is still open in MS Word, Access, Powerpoint or Excel it will not allow you to email it over."


(I can only assume this has something to do with the increased security in Vista)
