Outlook 2003 and Vista, No mail Applet in control panel under Vista64

[Dale M. White]

I just installed Office 2003 Pro under Vista 64 and I'm missing the mail
applet in the control panel, which I need to configure my profile. Is this
just a fluke that it didn't install it or is it a problem with Vista64. I
have Vista32 installed on the laptop and I have the mail applet, so I know
that works. Just curious about Vista64.

If it is a Vista64 thing, is there a way to get the mlcfg32.cpl installed or
to run ?

Thanks

Dale

Just an update, since I'm dual booting, I was able to double click on the
mlcfg32.cpl file in my Xp install and get to the profile setup. So the
program runs, under V64. Still don't see how to get it to add to the control
panel.

In Vista you need to click the option to show 32 bit .cpl in Control Panel.

Oh, there it is "View 32bit control panel items" That's a nice little place
to hide things. Guess I have to start thinking more outside the box with
64bit.

Thanks
