Hi,

Probably been asked previously, but I cannot locate...........


I am using Win XP, Outlook Express for newsgroups and Outlook for
mail/calendar functions. When I click a Mailto: hyperlink (word, excel or
web-page based) I get an OE mail launched and I want to change this to
opening the Outlook equivalent...... as at the moment I have to cut & paste
over to Outlook which is a pain.

Any help/ideas appreciated...

Regards
Dazzlin
 
When you click on a MailTo link, it will open your default mail client.
Either make Outlook the default mailer in Control Panel, Internet Options,
Programs tab, or get used to having to cut and paste into Outlook.
