Default Where's My Outlook???

I have just installed Office XP on my new hard drive and I fail to see MS
Outlook. I thought Outlook was included in the software. I have used
Outlook for years on my old hard drive and thought that is where it came
from.

So... is Outlook a seperate program? I do not ever recall buying any
software that specifically was named MS Outlook.

Office XP includes Outlook 2002. You should have been given the option to
install it. You can always rerun the installation and choose an Add or
Remove Features install

I do not have an "Add Programs" feature on the CD. I do have "Remove" though. Also when Outlook is listed it has a little "1" by the HD icon. Should I try to uninstall or 'remove' my existing (phantom) Outlook and try re-installing?


It was running on a drive that crashed along with my other Office XP
features and I'm just wondering if the disc thinks it is installed. Also, it
says that Outlook will be installed upon first use. However; I cannot find a
way to access it on either the CD or in my explorere files to find it and
run it.

Weird....

Any more suggestions? Anything would be wonderful.

The install CD doesn't have a "Setup.exe" on it?

My sincerest apologies. I do have an 'add/remove' section on the CD.
Although as I stated before the little '1' is by the HD icon. The CD thought
it was installed.

I used the 'add/remove' to remove it then reinstalled. All is fine now.
Chirping right along...

I took a chance and guessed that the CD was going by my previous installion
on my old HD. Sure enough, that was the problem.

Thank you so very much for your time and care.

The "1" means "Install it the first time it is used".

I'm glad you got it sorted.
