How old is the version of Outlook that you have reverted to?

Update on the glitchy Word/Monterey thing upthread.
The solution, painfully arrived at, was to install an earlier version of Word. But you can't, only an earlier version of the whole Office suite.
Word problem fixed, Outlook problem beginning. I can either run a new version of Outlook (and lose access to my archive), or the Legacy version with the archive. After a couple of days it's clear that the latest Outlook is a dog's breakfast; I will revert to the Legacy version. Memo to Microsoft: Ain't broke? Don't fix!
Meanwhile, MS was also unwilling to accept my proven authorisation. Who’d have thought I’d need to get into my Mac’s Terminal and tap in ‘*defaults write com.microsoft.Word ResetOneAuthCreds -bool YES*’ in order to convince MS365 that I am the user that is already using it!
There goes a day of my life … and another late night just clearing up the mess and catching up!
Thanks to @saalad and @grams.
