Word XP and Outlook 2003

[Stephen M]

I have Windows XP with current updates, but SP2 is not installed. I have
Office XP installed on the machine also. I installed Outlook 2003 to
interact with my exchange server. Now my Word XP does not contain the macros
or autocorrects that I had before the Outlook 2003 install. I have
uninstalled Outlook 2003 and repaired my Office XP installation, but still do
not have my old macros and autocorrects. Is there a way to get Word to
recognize these again? If so, is there a specific location for each user's
macros?

You can't use Word as your email editor since the versions don't match. You
can use Outlook 2003 but you'll have to use Outlook's own editor. You will be
unable to use Outlook 2002 since 2 versions of OL cannot be installed on the
same computer. You need to go back to OL2002 to use Word's editor or upgrade
your Office suite.
