I am running Office XP and recently installed outlook 2003.
In Excel I could no longer use [file] - [Send To] - [Email Recipient] to
send current
documents as e-mail.
So I uninstalled outlook 2003 and re-installed Outlook XP hoping to bring
this facility back but it didn't work.

I just get the message

"Excel could not start the e-mail program.
"Check your network connection. Make sure Office is istalled correctly,
your e-mail program is set up correctly, and you can connect to your e-mail
server."

Any ideas on how to get this feature working again?

One possible solution is: Try going to Internet Explorer and under Tools
click Internet Options, choose the Program tap and in the e-mail options pick
one of the email programs offered.

Thanks for the reply, but that was one of the first things I tried.
