XP. I figured out that I had used Windows installer cleaner to remove the
outlook program without ever uninstalling the program from the control panel.
I think I must have wiped out the registry of the program name. I
uninstalled via the control panel and re installed Office 2000 and then it
bacame a choice on the menu for default progrms again.

I have read as much as I can here, but cannot find and answer. When I run
Outlook 2000, the application comes up but with a message "Operation
Failed"
I cannot run the mail applet from the control panel, nothing happens.
When I
go to Itnernet settings to specify the mail program, Outlook is not listed
there. I have been installing and uninstalling all day.
