I upgraded to Vista Home Premium and now Outlook XP -2002 will not load, get
the following error message. "Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Outlook requires Microsoft Outlook Express 4.01 or greater. You can install Outlook Express by running IE5Setup.exe from the IE5 folder located on your CD or through the Windows Update website." I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Office XP, no luck. Tried to download IE6 from Microsoft, will not allow to install because version is older than what is currently on my system. Anyone else had this problem? Any solution? Thanks |

Are you sure you are using outlook 2002? I have not seen that error message
with Outlook 2002, only outlook 98. However, there are issues using outlook 2002 on vista. Unless you specifically need outlook and want you upgrade to outlook 2007, I recommend trying windows mail; and the new calendar program included in vista. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "Golfer" wrote in message ...

Thanks but that isn't any help. It confirms what I said - that Outlook 2002
doesn't store passwords.

I got the same message the first time I tried to use Outlook 2002 on Vista.
I just cancelled it and continued on and all was OK excepting the password issue. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote in message ... Are you sure you are using outlook 2002?

Correction, Windows will not store Outlook 2002 passwords. The registry setting that Outlook 2002 needs cannot be set in Windows Vista.

Correction - the registry entries for the passwords Outlook 2002 uses do
exist under Vista in the same fashion that they do under XP. They just don't work. In any case, what does it matter EXACTLY how Outlook 2002 doesn't remember its passwords seeing Microsoft wont be fixing it? "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ...

Yes and so? That makes no difference to what I said or asked.
