Aloha from Hawaii

I'm running Windows XP Home version and was running
Office 2003 Basic Edition just fine, but uninstalled and
added Office Professional XP instead for additional
programs Publisher, Access etc... but Outlook does not
work now. New profile seems to not have set up. Outlook
icons for mail, calendar, contacts, tasks etc...are not
showing and I get error message" unable to open yur
default email folder" Try again? or "open your default
File system folder instead?" Email test to server works.
FYI - Outlook Express also on this computer and working
fine...message did come up during Outlook setup to port
over info from OE to Outlook. How can I get Outlook to
work? all other new Office products seem to working okay.
Is there a conflict using Office XP Pro with Window XP
Home version???? thanks for anyone's input.
 
Try setting up another new profile using Control Panel | Mail and letting
Outlook create a new .pst file to go with it.
