Office xp outlook vs outlook express install question

[irish_zen]

Hi,
I have windows xp installed on my computer and I had outlook express, and I
did NOT have office xp installed at first. today I installed office xp and
when I did, it over rode the outlook express and installed regular outlook.
Is there any way to get outlook express back?? I HATE using regular outlook.
Thanks

OE didn't go anywhere. Just open it and you should get a prompt to make it
your default email client when it opens...say yes or ok.
