Well, lets start with the basics.

Why do you think Outlook Express replaced Outlook 2003? In other words,
what are you doing that starts OE and not Outlook?

Just like before, I go to "Start" and go to outlook, second icon from the
top. This is the way I have always done it. One day last week Outlook
Express 6 just showed up???

Thanks for responding!!!

One more thing. I did a MicroSoft suggested update. I'm not sure if that
was before or after I lost Outlook 2003.

It's back!!!!! Here is what happened ..... Russ, You fixed it for
me!!!!!!! To answer your question, when I opened OE, where Outlook used to
be, I got OE. You gave me the idea to do a computer search for Outlook 2003,
which I did. I found it and all my data was there. Here is what happened.
When I did the Microsoft update it made OE my primary email. All I had to do
is make Outlet 2003 my primary, and wala...... It's back!!

Thanks,

John
