MP, is your Outlook up to date?

I don't know whether Outlook is included in Windows updates.

If not, updating it could be a possible solution.

What about trying this:

Open Outlook,

Click Help,

Click Detect and Repair,

On the window that appears Click Start,

From here on just click whatever seems appropriate, pop your Office cd in if asked, and Outlook should be repaired to an original state.

Sorry for sounding a bit vague about this but I only went through the procedure up to a certain point.

unfortunately i dont have that cd. i made sure it was all up to date when i first started. i'm starting to wonder if i'm supposed to have a special folder?
