Is OL 2003 worth upgrading over OL2000

[bob]

I am recently having some problems with my OL 2000 and instead of screwing
around with it, I was tempted to just upgrade, can any one offer some words
of advice, I am a heavy user of general uses but don't delve that deep into
the capabilities.

Thanks

I think moving from Office 2000 to Office 2003 is a good move, but depending
on what problem(s) you system is having, it might not be. Its kinda like
building a new house on a lousy foundation. If the foundation is flawed,
the new building certainly will be. So what problems are you having with
Outlook 2000?

I tried to look up a contact say "jon" and the box came up with a buch of
Jons and I selected th e one I wanted and then I got a message taht OUtlook
could not find requested contact

so it worries me that this might be the case with other contacts

Not sure how far you are in patching Office/Outlook 2000, but clearing the
quick find most recently used might be helpful.
