I have tried to go through the procedure mentioned here about setting

in
Word 2007 and Windows Mail. Is there a specific conflict with these
programs? I have found several people with the same problem on this
forum.
I also tried to understand the advice in

but find it a little out of my league!

Or

Start, Control panel, Programs, Default programs, Set your default

Take your pick - both get you to the exact same place.

Not to seem dumb, but how. I went into Internet Options, I'm using
Windows
Mail that came with Vista.

IIRC, Office 2007 Students version doesn't have Outlook, so you
need to
make
sure that under Internet Options, Programs, the correct email
client has
been set.
