Outlook Today does not Customize

K

Kelly

Hello,

I have WinXP home edition with Office 2000 installed.
When I am in Outlook and want to customize the "Outlook
Today" screen it will not open the control panel, I can
click on the "Customize Outlook Today" til I am blue in
the face and it will not open...any suggestions or is
this the way it is?

Thanks,
Kelly

Quit Outlook 2000.
Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and
then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Application Compatibility
Click Edit, click New, and then click DWORD Value.
Type Outlook.exe, and then press ENTER. This creates a new
DWORD value named Outlook.exe.
With the new Outlook.exe DWORD value selected, click Edit,
and then click Modify.
In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
Quit Registry Editor.
Start Outlook 2000, and then go to the Outlook Today view.
Click Customize Outlook Today, and then customize the view
as necessary.
Repeat steps 1 through 8. When you do step 8, set the
Outlook.exe DWORD value to 0 instead of 1
