Setting Microsoft Outlook 97
1. Microsoft Outlook 97 doesn’t have the option for setting MAPI

is the default MAPI application in your system. For example, if you 
have two MAPI-compatible applications, Outlook Express and Microsoft 
Outlook 97, in your system, but Outlook Express was not set as your 
default MAPI application, therefore; ScanWizard 5 will send the 
image(s) to Microsoft Outlook 97.
