Question : unable to save chat from Office communicator in office 2010

I just installed office 2010 and I'm running OC 2007 R2. For some reson I can no longer save my IM chat from OC. I checked the settings in OC and they are greyed out, but are checked. I tried uninstalling  and reinstalling OC, still the same.

I do get a default email error  when starting Oc,  but outlook is my default email client. I have attached the error. I didn't start getting this until I installed Office 2010.

I'm running win7 64bit.

Answer : unable to save chat from Office communicator in office 2010

OC 2007 R2 out of the box did not have the ability to properly talk to Outlook 2010 64-bit. There are two solutions:

1) Update OC 2007 R2 with the latest patches. An update back in January addresses the Outlook 64-bit issue.

2) Install Outlook 2010 32-bit (it will run on Windows 7 64-bit just fine).
