115377 2003-01-20 02:06:00 Can someone tell me why when I open Outlook in Office XP I find that Winword is now running as well in the taskmanager. Is this taking up resources and can I stop this from happening.

Tks

115378 2003-01-20 02:13:00 WinWord = Microsoft Word

Is Microsoft Word your Default Email Editor?? - eg: do you type up Emails in it? as if your typing up an Email and you find that Word will be open as of course your typing up an email in it.

115379 2003-01-20 03:05:00 Tks that was the situation and it is fixed now. I use Outlook Express for mail so I have turned off the Word option in Outlook.

Tks again..

115380 2003-01-20 03:36:00 small trick here is to set the default HTML editor from word to notepad. this helps sicurity wise and stops it fireing up bloated word when all you need is notepad. tweak'e (174)
