Anyone use outlook XP?

[Lucky]

I wiped my drive yesterday and am reinstalling everything, but I'm having a slight problem with outlook xp. The "tools" menu is not at the top and I dont know how to make it appear. Anyone know? I've got SP2 installed with it.

thanks.

I have Outlook XP, but only at SP1.

Do you have the rest of the drop down menu's? I assume that is what you are refering to, all the menu's at the top: File, Edit, View, etc...

Or is it a toolbar that you are missing?

yeah, im talking about the drop down menus. "tools" is missing. WTF?

i am using outlook express, the one that installed with XP

"message" ? I guess I'm missing two menus then. arg..

Look in the view dropdown menu.

what am I looking for? none of the things normally in the tools menu are there. I "repaired" the installation and still missing them..

Is the menu missing in any other Office XP application?

Hmm.. you should have
File - Edit - View - Favorites - Tools - Actions - Help

Looking into it, gimme a sec

*edit*

Try right clicking on the tool bar -> Customize -> Toolbars -> Menu Bar -> Reset

View ---> Toolbars

Set to standard or you could just go to customize and set it up.
