After upgrading from XP to Win7 I installed Office XP.
Everything installed without a problem until I ran Outlook. Every time I started Outlook my passwords were awol. I looked at various forums and discovered this is a known problem since Vista was introduced. I am happy with Word and Excel XP and I really don't want to buy an a new expensive Office just because of this incompatibility! Does anyone have a fix or are there any alternative solutions available? |

Try using Outlook in corporate/workgroup mode. Since Office XP is now 8
years old, it's not supported on newer OS's. wrote in message ... After upgrading from XP to Win7 I installed Office XP. Everything installed without a problem until I ran Outlook.

Outlook 2002/XP didn't have any separate IMO/CW configuration anymore ;-)
The password issue cannot be solved by any native solution. The OP can use scripting tools and some password managers to fill in the password automatically each time the prompt pops-up. Since the password prompt only occurs once per Outlook session, the OP can also leave Outlook running during the day. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "Kathleen Orland" wrote in message ...

Why was there was no mention of this when I ran the Win 7 upgrade
advisor! I would have delayed the upgrade until I had an alternative! |
