Hi, after extensive problems with Outlook 2003, just recently, I
would like to re-install Outlook 2003. When I put in the Microsoft
Office Professional 2003 disk, it brings up lots of files. How do I
know what files to use for installing (or re-installing) just Outlook
(and none of the other applications) and do I need to uninstall
Outlook first? If I do need to uninstall it first, how do I isolate
it from the other applications, eg Word, Excel et al?
Many thx for your help.

You should use Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs to perform a repair
install.

That said, you could also try HelpDetect and Repair from any Office
application. Keep in mind, too, that reinstalling Outlook addresses fewer
problems that you might think. Often, a new mail profile will fix the
problem. If you elect to reinstall, you might consider using the WIndows
Installer Cleanup Utility to remove all traces of Office 2003 and then
reinstall the entire package. You won't lose any data. All of the Excel
and Word documents, as well as the mail data you have, should remain intact
and be available after the reinstall.
