Next time; do not multipost but crosspost instead. This way a single
discussion doesn't get split up into multiple ones.

Hi,

I have just upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2007 and have a problem
with
Outlook.

The programme loads, but twice comes up with the message - Outlook could
not
create the work file. Check the temp environment variable.

When I try to delete an email the system hangs and I have to shut down.

Can you advise a solution?

Regards,
