Outlook 2003 and Word 2002

[wackjack]

Is there any way I can use Word 2002 as my default email editor with Outlook 2003? In Outlook 2003, I go to tools->options->mail format and then the option "Use Microsoft Office Word 2003 to edit e-mail messages" is grayed out. This is because Word 2003 isn't installed. But there is no way to specify it to use a different version. Is this possible or am I just stuck using plain text until I upgrade the rest of the Office suite?

I don't know the answer to the 2002, 2003 dilemna, but you should be able to click Format, and choose HTML or Rich text even it you aren't using Word as your email editor.
