I've always used Outlook for years and years and never had a problem.

im setting it up now

hmmm...do i have to press the send/recieve button or is there some auto setting

I am pretty sure there is an auto set-up somewhere because I know with one of the older versions I used it woudl automatically download my e-mail upon opening the program and then every five to ten minutes while I left it open however I forget where it was.

I hate Microsoft Works.

The Office pack is so much better.. you know Word, Excel.

All this stuff is confusing me because all their products sound the same (in my head)...all I know for sure is I need Word.

Works is useless. I say definitely go with the Office pack, that's where you're going to get Word. Seriously, I hate works with a passion and I have no idea why people use it.

I live out of MS Outlook, especially at work. I use it for, like, everything having to do with my schedule, my to do lists, and my email.

I'm very familiar with MS Office. I agree with others who says Works is useless...get Office if you're going to get anything.

I'm not really at all familiar with Access (outside of very very basic functions), but I use Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Publisher at work ALL THE TIME.
I heart Publisher by the way. I make all my cards (Christmas, birthday invites, etc) in it, and we use it to make our newsletter at work, and it's great for designing cute little forms and letters and such. don't know if you have ANY need for something like that but it's a great EASY and QUICK little publishing program.

I have the office pack, got it cheap while I was a student. I have it on all my computers I could send it to you if you like. I'll get back to you, I'm at my sisters the pack is at my dads, I think.
