I just purchased and installed Outlook 2003. I already
had Office XP Office Pro installed. Outlook 2003 opens
fine and seems to function okay except for using Word as
the email editor. The option to select Word as the email
editor is "grayed" out and can not be selected. I thought
Word was the default editor for the 2003 version but I
don't seem to have it as an option. Does anyone know how
to get Word back as the email editor? Do I need to
reinstall Word XP to get it to integrate into Outlook? Do
I have to install Word 2003? I don't need it so I don't
want to incur that expense.

Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

If you want to use Word as your editor in Outlook, you're going to have to
either purchase Word 2003 or revert back to Outlook 2002 and use that with
Word 2002, both of which are in Office XP. Versions of Outlook & Word must
match to work together.
