Default Outlook 2002 won't retain Account password on Vista

Russ,

I have the same challenge with password retention. What I am hoping I can
do is install Office 2007 and upgrade my Outlook 2002 at the same time. Is
that possible without losing my emails, tasks, calendar, etc.?

I have a new Windows Vista computer but I am unsure which version of Office
I need to purchase in order to achieve this objective.

Thanks,

Gene

I don't understand why you would upgrade an entire operating system without
checking to see if an application that has been years out of mainstream
support would still work. Ultimately, the end user is the one who must take
responsibility for making wise purchase decisions. As a general rule one
should never upgrade an OS if any of the software they need to use is more
than 2 years old.

Thanks for the info. Again Microsoft doesn't seem to want to support its
users.

I installed Office XP on my new Vista Home Premium machine. Outlook
works
fine, but the system won't keep the e-mail account password. I am
using
POP
and SMTP. Any ideas how to correct this?
