Word 2000 vs Outlook 2007

[Patsy]

I have installed Outlook 2007 because the 2000 version kept crashing.
However I have not installed Word 2007 because the interface is
chronic. Probably OK for home use but too fussy and fluffy for work.

However although all my contact imported perfectly into Outlook 2000
for some reason Word 2000 can't find them and I get the error "Either
there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot
fulfil the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and
set it as the default mail client".

However I use and always have used Outlook Express as the default mail
client and it has never caused a problem before. I don't wish to use
Outlook as my default mail client - again too fussy and fluffy!

Word can not integrate with Outlook Express and it can't integrate with
Outlook unless both Word and Outlook are from the same Office suite.
