My office computer still has Office 2000 running on an ancient PC. I was
configuring Outlook to use with our web based email and got everything set up
and working fine but when I closed and reopened the program it was trying to
log on as a different user who is no longer there. In trying to remove her
profile so it would use mine I got to a question about whether this would be
a web based email account or a server based email. When I chose web based a
window popped up saying something about having to reconfigure the account and
i clicked OK. Outlook shut down and started reinstalling until it got to a
point where it needed the installation CD. I can not locate the CD anywhere.
Now Outlook will not open. It just starts the reinstall procedure and stops
where it needs the CD. Is there a way to install or download Outlook without
the CD? If so how or where can I download it? Thanks!

You cannot dowload it, legally, niether can you repair it without the cd.
If you are able to borrow a same version Office cd, you can repair with that

Ok. Thanks. That was what I was afraid of. Not the answer I wanted but
thanks anyway.

That was asking if you wanted to use Corporate-workgroup mode or Internet
mail only mode. If your computer supports system restore, roll back before
you tried to do this - corp mode will work fine with the acct.
