Unfortunately, the specification for registration of the default Mail client was never particularly clear, and drifted over the years. And some Mail clients weren't particularly designed to be the "default as recognised by Microsoft Access 2007 running on Windows XP". I haven't seen any complaints recently about this particular problem, but I assumed that was because the number of different mail clients in the world was decreasing, not because compatibility with Access was improving. In any case, on XP there are a number of different places that a Mail client can be set as the "default" for different things. If it doesn't work first time, post back with information about the specific Mail client you are trying to use. (david)
