I've just installed Office XP Pro, but the Assistant that
I've always used in Office 2000, The Genius, was not
included in XP. A quick look at the .acs files for the
included Assistants shows that these are the identical MS
agent files used in Office 2000 (except for Merlin)--right
down to the date and time created. There doesn't appear to
be any reason why The Genius wouldn't work just fine in
XP. Any ideas how I might add The Genius to my retinue of
Assistants in Office XP? I just love the way he blows up
spam in Outlook.

Hi R.B.,

As you noted the Genius is no longer included
in Office XP. It may work, with no Office 2000
app installed if placed in the addiitonal actors
folder. In Windows 98 that could be
C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Actors
