turn Word on as default editor for Outlook email

[suze]

I have MSoft Word XP and Outlook 2003. I'm trying to make Word the editor
for Outlook email. When I follow the online help directions I've copied here:


Turn Word on or off as your default e-mail editor for all new messages

From the main Microsoft Outlook window, click the Tools menu, click Options,
and then click the Mail Format tab.
Select or clear the Use Microsoft Word to edit e-mail messages check box.

the options are there under Mail Format, but they aren't highlighted where I
can click them. Any ideas??? Thanks.

you can only use word as the editor if both outlook and word are the same
versions
