How could I go from the 2003 Outlook back to the 2002 version?

[Tony]

I was cleaning up some unused items in my wife's computer, and now explorer
icon is gone together with the 2002 Outlook. I then used the MS Office to
download the 2003 version of the Outlook, she absolutely hate it. Is there
anyway to go back to the 2002 version? I would be thankful for any assistance
that anyone could offer me.

I was cleaning up some unused items in my wife's computer, and now
explorer icon is gone together with the 2002 Outlook. I then used
the MS Office to download the 2003 version of the Outlook, she
absolutely hate it.

I wonder why, since the two versions are so close in functionality.

Is there anyway to go back to the 2002 version? I

Just uninstall the newer version and reinstall the older version from your
Office XP install kit. Watch out for incompatible PSTs, though. See this:
