I recently purchased a new laptop.
Office 2007 trial was already pre-installed, however I have no intention to
purchase and use 2007 so I installed my original copy of office 2003.
I was happily using this until......
I accidentally double clicked on Outlook 2007 instead of Outlook 2003 when I
wanted to load Outlook.
I cancelled the set-up wizard and then Outlook 2007 immediately started to
import settings etc... Not much longer Outlook 2007 was open and asking me
for the product key. I cancelled that and it instructed me that I can open
the product a further 20 odd times as a trail. I could see all my email
accounts an messages as they were in 2003.
I closed down 2007 and opened 2003 but it would not open.
It has an error message telling me that Outlook 2003 is not working properly.
I have also noticed that since this time, 2007 seems to have become the
default application for all my office needs, for example, if I now double
click on an Excel file, it will automatically open Excel 2007.
My question is, how do I get my applicaitons to go back to the way it was,
so that office 2003 is my default application and for Outlook 2003 to work
again? I have no problems if I open Excel 2003.
My Laptop is using Vista.
Thank you for your assistance.
