Outlook 2003 Desktop Icon

Posted: 12 Sep 2004 08:40 AM PDT

And I just found a slew of these type posts in microsoft.public.outlook
(makes since) going back to early last year:

Odd, though you were around then. :-) Maybe you just started using Office
2003. Anyway yes to your question of a custom transform and yes it is set to
install the desktop icon. It created it on the 150 test Windows 2000 PC, but
not the 125 test XP PCs due to logo compliance they say. 80 of those 125
users emailed me asking for the "real" (brings up mail setup when you right
click and select properties) old Outlook icon back and not some chessy
shortcut. Despite the fact we sent out an advanced notic that it would not
be there and how they could grab the one from the start menu (if using
XP-style theme). They never read such emails. Anyway for the 8000 we will be
copy the one that gets pinned to the start menu.

Absolutely. Check out the ORK information I suggested.

Slight correction, Outlook 2003 uses the unicode format, not uuencode.

After searching google.groups.com and finding no answer, outlook_rox asked:

| Hi Roni,
| Outlook 2003 changed the default format for Outlook pst's. It is
| using an uuencode format. Previous versions of Outlook use the Ansii
| format.

| Unfortunately you are going to have to find someone with Outlook 2003

| Best of luck

Ok I went and did that today - I bought a retail copy, uninstalled the trial
version, installed the retail copy...and there was no change at all! I
wasn't prompted to activate the product during the setup process, and the
editing and activation issues still remain. Hmmmph. I suspect there is
something in the registry which wasn't deleted in the uninstall process, and
it still thinks it is a trial version. I have submitted a query to the
Microsoft Assisted Support site, so hopefully they will find a solution.

- Installs OK, but when you start Outlook, you get a 'migration screen. and
fails with missing msspc.ecf, pmail.txt, etc.
- does not allow me to reconfigure Outlook.

Office 03 Install over XP

Posted: 09 Sep 2004 09:28 AM PDT



I did the same thing-upgraded to office 2003 from xp. You
can just install 03, no need to uninstall xp. All your
info from outlook will be transferred to the 03 version.

need to remove menu bar add-in

Posted: 07 Sep 2004 06:37 PM PDT

I could not find a way to remove it following your advice but you did put me
on the right track. I use Word to edit my email messages and realized that
the toolbar addition was there also. I went into Tools > Customize > Command
and had the option to reset my normal.dot file. When I did that the extra
menu item disappeared.

Correction Milly office 97 is no longer a product support by calling in. How
ever they are directed to other resources such as the public news groups,
google, the web etc.
