Default Outlook Errors

Derrick wrote:

Hello everyone, this is a first time basis up here for me. I saw on
some other questions that I was having that people pretty had the same
problems and have used some of their suggestions and most of them
worked, so I thought I would join. At my work, we are trying to use
Outlook 97. We have several users on this computer and when I am
logged in as Administrator, everything works like it is supposed to.
When I log in as a user, say John Doe and try to open Outlook, it
gives me the following error : "Unable to open your default mail
folders. File access is denied. You do not have the permission
required to access the file C:\Windows\oulook.pst." It works when I
add him as an Administrator, but not a user. I have even tried to
reinstall Outlook, go into the registry under my account and give
John Doe permissions full control to the Office file. Does anyone
have any suggestions or tips that they could provide me? Any help
would be greatly appreciated.


What file system are you using, FAT32 or NTFS? It sounds like the user does
not have read/write permission to the PST. The first thing I'd do is move
it out of the Windows folder and put it in some other publicly-accessible
folder.
