I am running MSN as an ISP. When I click to retrieve my email under MSN it brings up Outlook Express as my email. I would like to have Outlook 97 as the default. I have modified under Tools, Internet Options, Programs, and selected Microsoft Outlook, (Outlook Express was previously there) but it does not bring up Outlook 97.

Any thoughts as to how I can fix this

Thanks

Paul

Paul,
If you are running MSN software, you should look for the configuration within the MSN program. That's where you call your e-mail from, right?

I don't particularly like the program, I setup MSN accounts in my clients PCs without the software. So, I could tell you where to go there.

Good luck!

Paul, I don't have msn so bear with me, but why are you retrieving your mail under MSN? Why wouldn't you open Outlook 97 and retrieve mail there?
