I am using Accounts Hosted. I am wanting to email a small file in excel version.  It looks like some thing is happening in the background but no email box pops up.  The email box pops up when I choose PDF but not excel.  Never a problem before..  What could it be?

    The email window may have populated in the background which is why it may look like nothing is happening. Try another email and then press & hold down the ALT key and at the same time press the Page Up button. This will bring any hidden windows to the foreground.

    This has not solved my problem. I still cannot email excel reports. Are there any other answers please?

    Erin,
    What is happening exactly for you?
    Are you getting an error message? Are you using Reckon Accounts Hosted?

    Can you provide some detail please along with outlining clearly the process you're going through.

    I also cannot send excel file as an email attachment.  It worked for several then stopped working and saying that I may need to update the excel program.  I then logged out and logged back in.  I could send one file and the second one wouldn't work either.  No message nothing.

    I have had this problem myself in the past, which I did report through this forum. What I found was that if I switched to a different browser it worked okay. Later on, perhaps the next day, when going back to the earlier browser (Chrome from memory), it was working again. The last time it happened, I can recall having some interaction with Rav.

    Try using another browser and see if the same problem exists with that one. I know that this can be frustrating, but I have found out on more than one occasion, after striking the problem, that there was another alternative which worked.
