Default Outlook 2007 opens and hangs

Thanks - it opened in safe mode but the same result - everything there except
the reminders which appear blank and churning. No cursor in the frame and no
way to exit except killing it.

Do you know if the reminders are also stored in the pst or in another file?

You've placed your quote in the wrong place;
"d:\programs\microsoft office\office12\outlook.exe" /safe

outlook.exe /safe should also work.

I did mean the the To Do list on the task pane

I tried to open in safe mode using the the leads on your website =
"d:\programs\microsoft office\office12\outlook.exe /safe" in my case but
got
"d:\programs\microsoft ' is not recognozed as an internal or external
command, operable program or batch file" .... what am I doing wrong?

Does it work when you start Outlook in Safe Mode?
Start- type; outlook.exe /safe

on the Reminders pane (bottom right)
You mean the Task List in the To-Do Bar?

On opening Outlook 2007 (installed and working for 3+ months), Outlook
opens
and e-mails present (although not the most recent one) but on the
Reminders
pane (bottom right) it displays and then reverts to a scrolling
sequence
which wipes out all reminder details and then won't go any further ...
Outlook just hangs at this point.

After reading the discussion sites, I have tried:
- SCANPST on all pst files but this doesn't fix the problem
- renaming OUTCMD and EXTEND to force recreation - no fix

I have also tried restoring from backup the last Outlook folder (where
pst's
are stored) - taken one-week before this manifested - but same problem.

Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Cannot find anything
like
this on the net.

Cheers
