Several options. The one I've used...

If the file is already created then:
1. open the file in Writer
2. select File > Save As... from the menu
3. open the "Save as type:" list box in the Save As dialog box
4. select the "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (*.doc)" option
5. make certain the "Automatic file name option extension" option is ticked
6. click OK

You now have a Word document you can attach to your email.

I'll leave it to others to provide alternatives or, if you wish, you can
also refer to the links below for additional options.
