I am using Outlook 2007 and XP.

When I click a link in an Outlook email, and IE7 opens, it comes up in
Classic theme, instead of the XP theme that I use (Royale Noir).

Other child windows from Outlook (Send/Receive Status, Rules and Alerts,
Field Chooser, etc) all come up in Classic theme as well.

It has been doing this ever since I remember, but it is not a big problem,
so I only mentioned it now. Does anybody know why Outlook would be opening
child windows without the XP theme?

Cheers

Ignore this. I just remembered what I did, months ago. I disabled themes
on the OUTLOOK.EXE file (Compatibility tab), and as that did not stop the
main window from appearing in Outlook's own built-in skin, I forgot that I
had done so.
