Outllok reinstall on Vista
 

Had Outlook (Office 2000) installed on my old Windows ME machine. Used it
basically for a contacts directory. Never used it for mail, used Outlook
Express. Went to new Vista machine and reinstalled Office 2000 mainly to
get the Excel and Word installed. Was going to again use Outlook for
contacts directory. Everything seemed to OK. But upon running Outlook I
keep getting "Outlook Start up " window. As I try to work through this start
up routine I get message
error message " can't find file WAB.DLL". I went back to my old machine
and WAB.DLL was no where on my hard drive. But "OUTWAB.DLL" was there,
Weird..Any thoughts?

I don't think its supported in Vista, but you can ask in an Outlook NG.

Maybe it would help to keep all different types of software on your computer
as new as possible, especially the one's that are relied upon for
communications.

To eliminate that error, you must install Outlook in Corporate Mode rather
than Internet Mode only. You can find more info about that at this link:
