Office Default Mail Client

[Mark]

I removed the beta version of microsoft office and installed the MSDN version
this weekend but I can not set the defalut mail client as Outlook. It will
not let me edit it in outlook or through control panel.
Does anyone know how I might repair this, I tried to fix the mail client in
the registery by deleting it and running repair on on the outlook setup but
this did not fix my problem.

You need to launch your Internet Explorer or Internet Options from
Control Panel.

Assuming you have launched your Internet Explorer, from the menu bar go
to Tools, Internet Options (this is the last item on the list). On the
Programs tab, you have the option to select default email client. Try
it and see if it solves the problem.

Let us have your feedback if this worked.

Mark,

Are you running all office products as Office 2010 RTM now? Not a mixture
of Outlook from previous office?

I had a similar problem with office 2010 beta, under Windows 7 - I ran the
Uninstall or change - change option and ran repair on Office Professional
Plus 2010 Beta and it fixed the default mail client to Outlook - not sure
why it lost it's default status under the 2010 beta version.
