Hello, hope someone can help...
I create invoices from quickbooks every month, email them to myself then forward them on to the appropriate people (all different) with word & excel attachments. Is there anyway to cut out that second step and send them directly from quickbooks with the appropriate attachments? Thanks!

You can email them directly to your client if you have entered their e-mail address in their profile. The client profile allows you to send carbon copies to third parties.

Another alternative is to save your invoices as a PDF file (File, Save As, PDF) and them forward them to the appropriate parties.
