Re: hyperlinks in outlook 2003 do not work



No, Milly.
What you don't seem to understand, is that I did NOT install ANY
imcompatible software on my computer. Like I said, I was running Office 2000,
& all was well, I then decided to upgrade to Office 2003 so that my daughter
could use it for school (Publisher etc). THAT is when the problem occured,
NOTHING else was installed between this change, or before. I have never
installed any other softwware apart from Microsoft approved stuff. I have
never HEARD of Firefox, let alone installed it. I am not sure what that is? I
use Internet Explorer & Outlook for my web & mail.
Probably best if Microsoft actually had a real good look at this issue,
rather than blame it on the consumer for installing other componenets. Yes?

Regards,
Rob J

No, the "bug" exists in incompatible software, installing/uninstalling

| Hi Milly
| Firefox? What is that? I didn't install anything, other than

| installing MYOB Accounting v15 (But it was going weird before that).
| I had actually restorted to using Outlook Expresss so I could link

| Maybe, I dread to say this word, it is a "Bug" in the upgrade, as

| Regards & Thanks for your help.
