All versions of Outlook will run on WIndows XP, from Outlook 97 through
Outloook 2003. What version d o you have that you believe you must upgrade
There may be a legitimate reason but it's not because you install Windows
XP.

I've solved the problem of the Fax. In theory I could keep with Outlook 97,
but to send/receive emails I would need Windows Messaging, right? And the
only version of messaging that I can find is off my old windows 98 disk (old
tools etc). The question therefore should be:

1) Is there an updated windows messaging within windows xp?
2) Or, does it come as part of Office 2003?

Office 97 will work on XP just fine just as it is, except for the inclusion
of the Internet Mail Enhancement patch. Make sure you apply the latest
patches.

No. Yo need the Internet Mail Enhancement patch from Microsoft's Office
downloads if you plan to use internet mail, but I dint' need to add anything
to my XP system when I used Outlook 97 there.
