hello - I am new to Vista. I have recently installed office on my pc and
prefer Outlook. So I have been trying unsuccessfully to have the default be
Outlook for when you go to "mailto" protocols. I see where I can change it
in the "Default Programs" however under protocols where it lists "mail to"
and I click on change program it only shows Windows Mail or Yahoo Mail as
options and not Outlook. Please help :)
 
ok so this is where I get stuck - after I get to the set your default
programs Microsoft Outlook is not listed in this screen

Hi Julie,

Which version of Office did you install? Does it include Outlook?
