PC Win: Err Msg: Unable to Load Specified Library

Last reviewed: September 21, 1995
Article ID: Q137072

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for Windows, versions 3.2, 3.2a, and 3.5

SYMPTOMS

When you try to run the SendMail macro, included with Mail for Windows, you may get the following error message:

   Unable to load specified library

CAUSE

Included with the client software in version 3.x of Mail for Windows are the following files:

   SMIAUTO.DOC
   SMIINST.DOT

These are Microsoft Word version 2.0 for Windows files that install a Word macro called SendMail. This macro allows a Word document to be sent as a mail attachment from within Word.

This macro was intended for use with Word for Windows version 2.0 and will not work with Word for Windows 95. Instead, use the Send command from the File menu.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, use the Send command from the File menu instead of using the SendMail macro.
