Default Outlook 2010 beta Default program

I am trying to set OL 2010 as my default email client so that I can us the
sendto feature on files to be attached to emails

OL is configured correctly as works well sending and receiving. When I go
to set default programs, OL 2010 is not even listed in the available
programs. This must be a mistake.

How can I configure OL 2010 as the default email program?

Thanks

Not sure if this will work under Outlook 2010, but in Outlook 2003/2007, you
can start Outlook with the /checkclient command line switch. You should get
a prompt asking if you want it set as the default e-mail, contacts, .etc
client.

Are you using the Home and Business "click to run" version? That can't be
set as default (or use Addins)
