Outlook 2003 won't start
Thanks, I thought that was going to be the answer. Oh, well!

I had a similar problem where the types of files that can be added is blank
or contains none that related to personal folders or PST files or such.
I found the only solution was to uninstall all Microsoft Office Software via
Add Remove Programs (or similar in Vista). Then reboot - Then reinstall the
microsoft office programs you need. Repairs and other recovery options were
not sufficient.
Note on one HP product I had to install and uninstall 3 times in total to
recover this.
You will also need to delete the mail profile via the mail icon in control
panel and remake it again.

Hi,
I have recently installed Outlook 2003 on my machine (win XP SP2), and every
time I try to start it it gives me the following error message:
"Unable to open your default e-mail folders. Outlook could not start because
a data file to send and receive mail could not be found. To add a data file,
such as a personal folder file, double-click the Mail icon in Windows
Control Panel"
So I go to the Windows Control Panel, double-click the Mail icon, I click on
data files, Add... I only have one choice (Business Contact Manager
Database), so I click OK, and it gives me the following error message:
An exception occurred while trying to run
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL"C: \PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\System\MSMAPI\1033\MLCFG32.CPL" ,@0"
I did some searching on the internet, but couldn't find any solution to
this. Can anybody help? I should point out that when asked to set up a mail
account the first time I opened up Outlook, I said no (and I don't want to
set up an email account).
Many thanks in advance,
Arnaud
