Outlook 2000 wont open in XP

[EarnestTBass]

I've recently upgraded from Win98 to XP. And now my Outlook with
not open. I cannot find my Microsoft Office 2000 Pro disc to reinstall it.
The information I have stored there is important to me and if at all possible
I'd rather not lose it. I was also prompted with a message that read,
"component is missing, OMINT.DLL(only once) What can I do?

You really need your installation media & cd keys handy at all times or get
replacements if you lose them. You probably haven't lost any data, mind you.
Also, you should run a full backup of all your data before doing OS
upgrades, just in case...
