email field causes outlook to crash
Assuming that at one point Outlook functioned, any idea what lead up to this
problem?

Also, as a strange sidenote. When i try to edit the email address in a
contact i can delete the address, add a space via the spacebar, add a
semi-colon, and other symbols, but i cannot type letters or numbers. i
don't
know if that's helpful.

Still
having the same problem. :-(
The Inbox Repair Tool didn't find any problems.

I accidently forgot to specify that this is in the Contacts section.
My
inbox
seems to be fine, except now when I try to type a name from my
contacts
into
the To part of an email, nothing happens. It doesn't automatically
pull up
their email like it used to.
I haven't received any error messages other than that Outlook has
encountered an error and needs to restart. I tried to fix it by just
getting
rid of Outlook all together and reinstalling it with the hopes that
somehow
it would restore something that may have gone missing.

None of what you did would help. Cleaning the registry? How did you
do
that?
List the steps that caused this problem in the first place. List the
error
messages you get.
Normally one would repair the Outlook Data File using the Inbox
Repair
Tool,
then create a new Outlook profile from scratch to troubleshoot
crashes
like
this.

When I try to edit or type an email address into the Email field
in
Outlook
2003 it causes it to crash. Everything else seems to work OK. I've
tried
running the detect and repair, and I've uninstalled and
reinstalled
Office
a
few times - and even cleaned the registry to try to fix it. But,
the
problem
still remains! Help! I like Outlook, but this might cause me to
switch
to
something else.
