Outlook 2002 & Windows 7

The parts are coming from 3rd party vendor, and MS doesn't "insist" you
buy a new Office, that's your choice.

Good old Microsoft, done it again. Amazing how many ways they manage
to find to screw more dosh out of the 'faithful' users.


Amazing how many ways car makers manage to screw more dosh out of
those Model T and A drivers because the parts for them can't be found
any more.

I have the same problem with Office 2007 and that is only 3 years old. Seems
like MS should be able to maintain compatability with less than 3 year old
software.

This is an incompatibility, easy to understand when you consider that Office
2002 is 8 years old. Vista and Windows 7 require Office 2003 or better.

Having just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 HP preinstalled, I
installed
my own Office XP suite.

The only issue is that Outlook doesn't seem to store my email password
properly. When I launch it I get the username and password popup with the
password as **********. Clicking OK gets my emails, and subsequent
send/receive works fine.

Anyone have any idea wheather this is an incompatibility between two MS
products, or any other ideas?

Perhaps you have an add-in causing issues, as other folks aren't having
that problem with 2007.

No problems with Office 2007 remembering passwords on Win 7 that I've seen -
are you sure it's Office and not your Mail provider?

Office 2007 is compatible with Windows 7. What issues are you seeing?
