 Hi, I have messed with the boss's computer, now he wants me to fix it!!  In 
fairness, HE wanted me to reformat and reinstall everything so I did!  (O/S is 
XP Home with SP2, Office is 2003) Before this, he could send MS Word documents 
as attachments to emails using Outlook Express (not liking Outlook) without any 
difficulties.  After the reinstall, when he first tried, an error message came 
up saying something about 'create a profile in Outlook'. Outlook was shown as 
the default mail handler.  I made OE the default but that didn't help. Then I 
modified the installation of Office and deleted Outlook completely since he 
does not use it.  Now, I get the error message "You must log on to Microsoft 
Exchange to access your address book". I have done a search for assistance and 
so many 'solutions' seem to be so long and convoluted I am reluctant to try. Is 
there a simple remedy to this error message, since we did nothing out of the 
ordinary when originally setting up his email accou
 nt.  I have never had anything to do with MS Exchange and do not know where to 
start! Hopefully someone can help me pacify the boss, and if I am fortunate 
enough to get an overnight reply I may have it fixed before he comes in 
tomorrow morning!  Thanks heaps everyone! Roger
