Default Outlook will not install

We had Office 97 on our system but now we've decided to install XP Office
instead.

The installation went fine and everything seems fine and dandy, except
Outlook.

It seems that the installation removed the old Outlook but didn't put the
new one on instead. I've gone through the add / remove utility to try and
install it manually but it won't let me. The option for doing so has an X
over it.

Did we install it incorrectly or has something irregular happened?

Thanks for your attention and for any advice you can give me.

David

Its a long time since I used the O97 install so.....
Do you mean the 'x' is seen when you attempt to modify the installation?
Have you searched for outlook.exe on your sys?

Yes, the X is seen when I attempt to modify the set up after I've put the XP
Office CD in. I've searhed for Outlook.exe but it cannot be found.
