I us some reporting software whicj creates emails and place's them in my outbox awating sending. After install outlook 97 on my XP machine i export my email's to outlook express thus giving me all my old emails on my new machine however on removing outlook 97 i now can't use my VB written mapi enabled reporting software. The software is looking for a profile. I have managed to get outlook express and I.E working fine together after the deinstall. How do i make outlook express the main and sole email client again. Please any help would be good but hurry.
