Outlook themes

L

LisaP

When selecting stationary options it says that "themes are not installed".
When trying in another application like Work I can select built in theme but
they don't apply to my document.

Why is this....how do I load the themes? Do I need to reinstall Office
(Home & Student) 2007?
Thanks

Outlook must come from the same Office suite as the rest of the Office
programs to have themes work. Since the H&S edition does not include
Outlook, getting themes to work is problematic. I have heard that some
folks have been able to run a detect and repair to get them to work but it
has been rare.

Hi Milly - My Outlook and Word from same Professional Suite 2007 and
"themes not installed" message showing up. I've tried re-installing, etc.
to no avail. I have Windows XP. Can you help? Thanks.

Insert your Office CD and re-run setup to install everything to run from
your hard drive.

Thanks, Milly, but I've done that - no luck. I might add that at one point
I did have the themes and they just went away but I don't know when.
Perhaps an Update caused this?
