Expired Outlook 2003 trial version has disabled Outlook 2002

[Marianne]

On my new Dell computer the trial version of Office 2003 has expired and my
old Outlook XP won't work properly now. It says it is "not implemented". I
tried removing the trial program and nearly destroyed my computer in the
processes. Tried reinstalling Office XP, no luck although that is what it
tells me to do. It says there are registry problems, although it is a valid
version. Does Office XP not work on Windows XP?

Use Control Panel-> Add/Remove Programs to remove Office 2003
After this reinstall Office XP.

No need to go that route yet.
