[outlook 2003] mail client not deafult in 64 bit
Hi All,
I have 10 stations with 64bit hardware and OS (XP 64). After installing office 2003 + SP3, I've tried to send a file from desktop: Send to Mail recipient, and a wisard pops up asking me if I want to set outlook express as deafult email. Any thoughts? Thanks a lot in advance

[outlook 2003] mail client not deafult in 64 bit
Thanks a lot Diana, Gr8 tip!!
I've created the shortcut and it partially worked. When sending a single file, it works perfect. When selecting several files (in desktop for example) I get the following error "The command line argument is not valid Verify the switch you are using" Any suggestions? Thanks again "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: Make your own send to shortcut to outlook? http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2007/20071221.htm (it works as expected here, but I have outlook 2007 on x64. ) -- 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: ** Please include your Outlook version, Account type, and Windows Version when requesting assistance ** "Lp12" wrote in message ...

I don't believe that Outlook's command line interface allows specifying multiple files, so selecting more than one file for the SendTo shortcut won't work. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

Thanks Brian,
Any other suggestions? Maybe it's because there are both program files and program files (x86)? "Brian Tillman" wrote: Lp12 wrote: Thanks a lot Diana, Gr8 tip!!

Any other suggestions? Use your SendTo shortcut to send only one message at a time or select and drag several files to the New Message window after you've opened that window. Maybe it's because there are both program files and program files (x86)? I don't think that has anything to do with it. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

So what you say is that's a bug/issue for XP 64bit/Office 2003, with no
remedy?

That trick only works with 1 file. Drag and drop the others to the open
message. -- 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: ** Please include your Outlook version, Account type, and Windows Version when requesting assistance ** "Lp12" wrote in message ...

I don't know if it’s a bug with Outlook 2003 on x64 or if its something
goofy with your machines. I know its not something specific to x64, as it does work with Outlook 2007. -- 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: ** Please include your Outlook version, Account type, and Windows Version when requesting assistance ** "Lp12" wrote in message news  So what you say is that's a bug/issue for XP 64bit/Office 2003, with no remedy?
