This Win/98 PC was connected to a college network.

Now it is home and I cannot change Accounts (Tools /
Options / Accounts). When clicking on Accounts to change
email parameters, OutLook stares back at me and fails to
launch the Account maintenance dialogue boxes. There are
no error messages. Just a simple refusal to work.

Any ideas.

Many thanks!
 
Try via Control panel. This assumes Outlook 2000 is in IMO mode. If it was
in CW mode then, from within Outlook, accounts would be accessed via Tools |
Services.
