Problems after installation

[Jessica]

I have run into two problems (so far) after the
installation of Office Small Business 2003. I am running
a PC with Windows XP.

Problem #1:
After starting up Outlook, the text in the Navigation
Pane on the left is 'cut-off' on some lines. For example,
in the text "Inbox" the x is cut-off halfway. The 'm's
are cut in half on Sent Items (with no 's') and Deleted
Items and so on. So it's not like it's cut-off in a
straight line down the navigation pane, just a few of the
lines.

Problem #2:
I have selected Microsoft Word as my email editor,
however when I select New to compose a new mail message,
it defaults to the Outlook message style instead of
opening Word to send my message.

Any help would be appreciated.

PS: I also wonder if it is possible to save all of my
messages, contacts, calendar and settings from another
hard-drive to the one I'm currently using. I had a
corrupt hard-drive which I was lucky enough to salvage
the data from - I just can't figure out how to retrieve
all of my messaged, etc. Thanks in advance for any help
available.

For problem 1 try moving the vertical separator to the
right. Once you move cursor across the separator it
should turn to a bar hold down left mouse button and drag
bar to the right this will expand the navigation pane.
For the second issue not sure but I might suggest
checking under tools, options, mail format tab. Verify
that use Microsoft office....to edit e-mail

Hope one of these helps

Thanks, but I've tried both. I've also tried Detect and
Repair and Reinstall from disk... I'm at a complete loss.
