You can only have one version of Outlook installed in an OS partition, so
you need to make a final choice. Outlook 2003 or ability to use Word as the
editor on the occasional mail.

| Thanks again. I don't need the Word editor in all of my
| email messages, just some of them. Could I re-install
| Outlook 2000 while keeping Outlook 2002? That way, if I
| want to using Word on a message, I'll send it from Outlook
| 2000, while using Outlook 2002 for other tasks. Or, would
| trying to re-install Outlook 2000 with Outlook 2002 cause
| too much of a problem?
