Well yes...that is DEFINITELY weird if you installed Outlook 2002 and ended up with Outlook 2000....I have to tell you Ivan that that's one I have NEVER heard before...and you are saying that in this installation of Windows, you NEVER had Outlook 2000 installed? Ever? If that is what you are saying, I'm clueless as to what you could do....have you tried uninstalling just Outlook and reinstalling it (from control panel, obviously)?

Me confuse? Not me ...ok...I reformatted the HD and installed Windows 2000 as the OS....then I installed Office XP....about a month later...I had the problem that I describe...not really a problem...cuz it all works...I just thought it was weird that Outlook "reverted" to Outlook 2000. The SP3 was for the OS.... Does this make any better sense?
