Where are the animated Outlook characters I had before?

[Guest]

In a previous Outlook version, I could choose an amimated character like a
dog or cat to bound accross the top of my Outlook tool bar.
Is there a way to get them on Microsoft Office Pro 2003?
I know it sounds silly, but I grew rather fond of the pooch
Thanks!

Outlook/Office 97/98 characters are unavailable in later versions as the
later versions use a different file format.

Yep, but there are still Office Assistant characters, aren't there? If you
click Help in Outlook, choose Show the Office Assistant, it should bring up a
character. If this menu option doesn't exist, you should just modify your
installation to include the Office Assistant as part of the setup.

I don't like Office Assitant characters, so I haven't really checked this
out but you should still be able to have one, even if it's not the pooch you
became so fond of
