Stop adding personal information when attaching and sending Office documents
 

When you attach a Microsoft Office Word 2007, Microsoft Office Word 2007, or Microsoft Office Word 2007 file to an e-mail message, personal information (such as your name or e-mail address) is added to the properties of the attached file to enable tracking and merging changes. You can prevent your personal information from being added by doing the following:

  1. In Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, on the Tools menu, click Trust Center, and then click Attachment Handling.
  2. Under Reply With Changes, clear the Add properties to attachments to enable Reply with Changes check box.
