outlook needs connected to create exchange mailboxes but as long as you are
using cached mode, it should work ok.

Thank you, Hal.

Strangely, today, Outlook opened normally and finished the migration. I
can
operate perfectly. The only difference between yesterday and today is that
now I am connected through my compay LAN.

Do you think this has anything to do with the Exchange account of my
company? Will this error happen every time a try to open Outlook not
connected to the LAN or was it only the first time?

Regards.

I tried deleting all those files, without success.

If I create a new profile, how do I import my previous pst into OL
2007?

I upgraded Outolook from 2003 to 2007.

After lauching Outlook, a little screen opens, showing that Outlook
is
migrating accounts and archives. Suddenly Outlook closes down and an
error
message appears showing:

Not able to start Microsoft Office Outlook. Not able to open window
of
Outlook. Not able to open this group of files. The attempt of
starting
a
session in Microsoft Exchange has failed.

Should I reinstall the application?
