    After I installed Office 2007 the icon for outlook 2007 on my start menu is gone and I don't know how to get it back! The short cut still works but it just bothers me that theres no icon. If I click on properties it doesn't give me the option of changing the icon. Heres a picture:

    This should work:

    1. Right click and remove the one on the start menu.
    2. Find the Outlook icon on your desktop or in your MS Office folder.
    3. Right click on it and choose "pin to start menu".

    Not knowing Office 2007, no guarantees, though. :)

    Delete that shortcut and then make a new one and replace it.

    lol. Sometimes just a little "resting" the computer will make a difference =)
