Read Outlook (MSG) messages in Outlook Express?

[Ron]

Hello. I use Outlook 2002 at work and OE at home. It seems that the
Outlook messages are converted to Microsoft Word when I try to open
them but all I get is gobbly gook. How can I open and read Outlook
messages while using OE and other standard programs WITHOUT installing
Outlook 2002? Thanks

You can't. You can only open msg-files in Outlook. Next time choose to save
in txt, rtf or html instead if you can't open them in Outlook.
