"Send To - E-mail Recipient" Not Working

P

Polyprod

I am running Office XP and recently installed outlook 2003.
I could no longer use [file] - [Send To] - [Email Recipient] to send current
documents as e-mail.
So I uninstalled outlook 2003 and re-installed Outlook XP hoping to bring
this facility back but it didn't work.

I just get the message

"Excel could not start the e-mail program.
"Check your network connection. Make sure Office is istalled correctly,
your e-mail program is set up correctly, and you can connect to your e-mail
server."

Any ideas on how to get this feature working again?

Thanks for responding Milly,

I have just tried "Detect And Repair". It went through all the motions,
asked for the disc, then completed.
Unfortunately it still doesn't work.

I have tried changing the default e-mail program to outlook express, restart
computer, then tried sending a file using send-to from within Excel but it
gave the same respanse :-

"Excel could not start the e-mail program.
"Check your network connection. Make sure Office is installed correctly,
your e-mail program is set up correctly, and you can connect to your e-mail
server."

Changed the default prog back to "Microsoft Office Outlook" then restarted
computer.
No Luck, same response.

Thanks a million for finding the time to respond.

Any other thoughts?

First, have you tried uninstalling all of Office (make backups of your files
including the .pst file for Outlook) and run the Windows Installer Cleanup
Utility? Then try reinstalling only Office XP and see if it works.
