I use outlook express but want a calendar for scheduling. Tried to install
outlook & it says I need to provide the Microsoft exchange server & mailbox.
Can you tell me what to do?

"Tried to install Outlook" from where? Do you have an Office installation
disk? If you are a stand alone user, you do not have an exchange server. Set
it up as a POP mail acct., if that's what you have. Get the POP server
settings from your ISP.
 
Office 2000 small business. I went through the installation & when asked for
the exchange server i left it blank. Now it gives me errors. What else can I
do?
 
'Control Panel|Mail|Show Profiles', remove the profile and create a new one
with the "Add" button. Make sure to NOT select Microsoft Eschange Server
information service.

Thanks Hal, that seems to be the ticket!
