Links not working

[Wanda]

Have you encountered a problem with the email links in MS-Office products not
working any more? It has just happened to us lately. We are using XP -
SP3, MS-Office 2003 - SP3. The links will still bring up Outlook, but will
not put the address in the TO field any more. When we had MS-Office 2003 -
SP2, it was working. We think it happened after SP3, but not sure. Have
any ideas what the problem is?
Thank you.

IE8 installed on all of them??

Are you telling me to install IE8 and the links will work? We have IE6 - SP3.

 

[Peter Foldes]

No I am not saying that at all. I was just curious if you had IE8 installed. That is
all. I misunderstood your question on your issue. I thought that opening links in IE
was not working.
I am not following . What link and what does it have to do with Outlook and the To:
field. Can you explain the issue a bit more in detail.

Sorry. We put links in let's say MS-Word, Excel, etc to bring up Outlook
and put the address in the TO field. The link is:
mailto:wanda.moyer@?????. The link will bring up Outlook and a new email,
but will not put the address in the TO field. Does this help?

Just wondering if there has been a discovery of why a link to bring up
Outlook and put the address in the TO field does not work in any MS-Office
products (Word, Excel, etc)? The link would say
"mailto:[email protected]". We are using WinXP - SP3, and MS-Office
2003 - SP3. Using WinXP - SP2, it was working.
Thank you.
