My Home/Student trial offer expired and I tried to convert to the full
verson, but loaded a trial offer of Office Professional by mistake. It
deleted my Outlook Express and replaced it with Office Outlook. It stated
everything from Outlook Express would pull through to Professional Outlook,
but it didn't. I've lost my contacts info, calendared appts info and
messages I'd save in my Inbox and Folders. Any suggestions on how I recover
this info? I currently forward my emails from sbcglobal.net to Outlook, any
idea how I ensure I have that set up correctly?

Thanks!

Outlook express 6 CANNOT be deleted by any applications because it is
hard-wired with IE6 even if you upgrade to IE7 and IE8, OExpress will
still be there.

Now, I suggest try this link:

<"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe">

If it works, it will launch your OE otherwise please copy and paste the
link in your Windows explorer (even in IE it should work!).

Installing Office does NOT delete Outlook Express or it's data because OE
has no affinity with Office at all - it's a completely different program.
What makes you think it has?

Thanks for the info, but it didn't work. Does it make a difference if it was
a trial version? Where do I type in the link?

Gordon -

I can't find the version of Outlook Express or Express Mail... It was a
trial version I think, does that make a difference? Any idea where I should
look to try and find it? I'm not very adept at computers. Thanks!
