I have two accounts on my XP system. I use Outlook and my
wife uses Outlook express. When I try to send email from
my account with Word 2000 I get my wife's Outlook express
address book.

I set up Outlook as my default email with Internet
Explorer (tools - internet options - programs) and can now
see my contacts when sending mail from Word 2000... but my
wife's email defaulted to Outlook.

How can I use Outlook and send mail from Word (seeing my
contacts) and have my wife use Outlook express and send
mail from Word (seeing her address book)?

Thanks!
 
Hi Ron,

That workaround hasn't been found as of yet. There is a small utility that
sits in the Notification Area that allows switch changing of either;
however, I don't have that information on hand at the moment.

Good luck and keep us posted.
