Hello

I use Win XP Home Edition SP2, Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express
V6.00.2900.2180

Is there any problem running both Outlook and Outlook Express
simultaneously on same machine?

Is there any known problems from using two application simultaneously?

Thank you.

In addition to the other replies, you should note that you can only set
ONE application as your default email application....


There may be another side to this I'd like to know about:

The 2 users on this m/c get into the aforementioned battle with defaults
switching back and forth with no bother (And, incidentally, lately I have
noticed that, as well as changing the e-mail to Outlook, the other user is
changing the news to 'Outlook' as well. A bit rich if, as above, O uses OE
in any case!).

However, I wonder if it is possible to read the same mail from either reader
without having to duplicate it all?
I would like to have the O calendar reminders for example, and occasionally,
the formatting capabilities, but, for the most part I find OE more
convenient. It would be handy, therefore, if I could switch between the two
progs with each accessing the same account but not duplicating the data.

But as one uses dbx and the other pst: Not possible I suppose?

Regards,

S
